February 12,13: Saturday started with the usual Chocolate chip pancakes. Then Clara and I spent most of the afternoon making a couple different kinds of chili for church tomorrow. On Super Bowl Sundays our congregation holds it’s annual Chili Cook Off as a fund raiser for our youth. At the last minute I decided to enter two kinds of chili. In a team effort Clara and I cooked up an authentic Texas style chili and a sweet and spicy more traditional chili.
Part of the fun is naming your entry and decorating your table in a theme. Our Texas chili had cubed beef chuck so it’s was named “Chuck on the Brazos” Texas cowboy themed of course.
And our sweet and spicy chili we named “Chili is for Girls” being sugar and spice and everything nice ya know.
I’m so happy to announce that we WON 2nd Place! I knew we had some really good chilis but I also knew the competition was fierce so I really didn’t expect this.
I’m so happy for you Clara! Let’s do it again next year!
