I’ve decided since the world has gone all inside out that I needed to find a food topic that I have always felt strongly about and take a whole new look at it. We are all learning to adjust to new normal and adapting to crazy situations that we need to learn how to open our …

Game Shows, Bad Sounds and New Goals
Do you ever watch game shows? Every show has its own distinct sound effect for when the contestant does the wrong action. It can be the buzzer on Jeopardy when none of the contestants know an answer or maybe it is some whacky trombone noise when someone overbids on the Price is Right. There are a ton of …
Unpredictably Predictable Chili
Can something be predictably unpredictable or is it that some things are unpredictably predictable? I’m trying to decide if this is the way life is laid out. It seems like there are events in life that we go through and we kind of know what to expect but it isn’t always the same. There is always …
The Controversy and Making Chili
I have a confession to make. It is a little bit controversial so I was concerned if I should bring it up on this kind of venue. It seems you say one wrong things these days and next thing you are you are banned from society. It is like people aren’t allowed to have an opinion or debate …
Squashing the Rumor That Chili is a Soup
Do you ever look at a menu’s specials of the day and want to scream? I don’t mean “literally” scream, more of a “you’ve got to be kidding me” scream. I’m hoping you say yes or I might need to start looking at anger management. (I’d trade spaghetti sauce for some good therapy.) I bring …
Extreme Chili
I was standing in line at the grocery store the other day and an attractive man was standing beside me tapping at his wrist. (Please note: He was attractive but no where near as cute as my husband!) I thought it was an indication that he was in a hurry and offered to let him in …
Bringing Down the House Chili
I am a VERY methodical person. I like to plan and be organized. I feel accomplished just by having a plan and sticking to it. The problem is that they often go wonky. An example would be Halloween this year. My plan was to get some chili on the stove early, volunteer at the elementary …
Chumbo
Brrrrr!!!! If you don’t live in the Midwest, I consider you lucky right now. The last two days have been filled with incredible amounts of snow and wickedly low temperatures. It is so cold…..how cold is it…it is so cold that we are eating with plastic silverware so that our forks won’t stick to our …
Chilly Weather Chicken Chili
If you live in the Midwest, there is one thing you are talking about right now…the weather. I don’t know why it surprises us every year because the same thing happens EVERY year. Winter comes. We all say to each other what a mild winter it has been so far. We talk of how it …
March Away Winter Chili
Neighbors. Love them or hate them, they are part of your life. I am VERY fortunate to be surrounded by one of the best groups of neighbors a gal could ever ask for. (This is the part that I am buttering them up because I am posting one of their recipes.) We are a multifaceted …
