And the winner is......
OK, that's a bit misleading, since it wasn't really a contest. Here's what's being served in Tammi's World today.
Chili. Doesn't that sound good? (thanks for the suggestion Pete!)
I haven't made Chili since I moved back up here. Isn't that kind of backwards? In Florida I'd make it every time the damned temps dropped below 75. Here? Where the snow blows and the wind chill can be horrid? Yeah, I don't even think of it.
But today I'm makin' a big ole pot of that delicacy. Now, most folks wouldn't think of it as REAL chili. I can't go spicy. At all. I love it flavorful but I can't eat spicy. Hell, I suffer when I make the spicy manicotti, for cryin' out loud. There are days that WATER gives me heartburn. Yeah, no spicy for me.
But within the hour Paradise will be filled with the comforting scent of spices and and cornbread (you canNOT have chili without cornbread. I think it's against the law!) Football starts at noon and I think that should make it a pretty damned good Sunday.
UPDATE: Is my face RED! I didn't even mention that Stacy Lee suggested the Chili too! Sorry Stacy. I was so impressed with your list cookin' list for today, I completely missed that!!!

Posted by: Johnny - Oh at October 7, 2007 09:32 AMHey, could you send some chili down my way? It sounds soooo goooood but I am just too darn lazy to make any. That's pretty lazy cuz it is pretty easy to make. I think there is something about chili and cornbread and football that just blend so well together and make each just that much better. Enjoy!

Give me a bunch of onions and cheese to put on top of the Chili and I would be in heaven!!!
