Hey there!

I’ve spent the last couple days house-sitting for my mom and dad while they took a mini-vacation.  (I still don’t know where they went.  I’ll find out on Monday, I guess.)

While I was there, I made a giant pot of chili for myself.  When I say “giant”, I mean there was at least two gallons of chili in that pot.  I wanted plenty of leftovers so I could share some with the ABC group on Tuesday, plus I like the idea of occasionally bringing a bowl of homemade chili for my lunch at work.

This was good chili.  I love super-hot chili, the hotter the better.  This came out sort of a medium-warm.  Still, I liked it.  I used two pounds of hot pork sausage and nine cloves of fresh chopped garlic and an entire jar of diced jalapenos.  If I could’ve found habaneros I would have used those instead.  Plus there were the usual “chili ingredients” like tomato juice, crushed tomatoes, and plenty of hot chili beans.  And spices.

The farts were amazing.  I’m not gonna lie.

So, when I got this “Power Blog” Award from Mik over at Slightly Mordant, my first thought was that my blog is powered by gas.

Thank you, Mik, for thinking of me. 

Would you like a bowl of chili?
