Where there is mystery, it is generally suspected there must also be evil
– George Gordon Noel Byron
– nimbu-mirchi / chilies and lemon
It has been an old wives tale in India, that by hanging a bunch of 7 chilies and one lemon, threaded in a black string, will ward off all the mysterious evils.
The above bunches are home delivered in my vicinity, fresh and early in the morning to several homes.
