Last night we had chili I made in the crock pot. 
You know how chili always tastes better the next day? Well, this chili tasted next day good on the 1st go round. The recipe is posted here. I prepped everything Tuesday night then turned it on before I went to work yesterday. Husband likes his chili over spaghetti (like chili mac). I topped it with sour cream, cilantro & white queso cheese. I also made some tortilla chips in the deep fryer to go with it. Husband was so cute because he was so excited over it.
How do you like my funky chili bowls? I painted this set (there are 4 different designs) in 2001 and we love them. Because they’re pottery/stoneware type bowls they keep your chili or soup nice and warm.
Now I must take a moment to vent. My friend ‘S’ was supposed to be having dinner with us last night. She asked me when could we get together, she asked me could we eat dinner at my house instead of meeting at a restaurant. Then she totally bailed on me yesterday saying she was ‘tired’ from too many late nights. She pulls this kind of thing on a semi-regular basis. One of those who schedules 37 things to do in one day then calls you up to see if you can get together for a movie that day. She’ll ask if she can come over then once she gets there start talking about all the places she has to go next. I’m just thinking that’s rude. I stayed up late Tuesday making a nice dinner and cleaning my house for her to come over then she bails because she’s tired? She just asked if we could get together Saturday afternoon to scrapbook but that she’ll be driving to another city in another state that evening for a football game! So basically we’d scrap in 30 minutes or less? When I make plans with someone, I’m in. I’m there. Unless my house burns down I’ll be there. I respect the fact that you well, have a life and other things going on in it and that you’ve set aside some time for us to get together. Because you know what? So do I. Sorry to end this post on a not so happy point, but I thank you for letting me vent. We’ll now resume our regular programming. =)
