Long and Exciting Days

Been a couple of days since my last posting, but I've been really busy. Started an audit Monday and it's been a lot of work, so much that I've brought some data home last night to review. It's tough, but I love being this kind of busy at work.

My office is having the annual November chili cook-off tomorrow and I forgot that I listed myself as an entrant, which means I have to make chili tonight. Ugh! I'm a bit wiped out and have never made it before. It's a heck of a time to experiment, but as a former chemist, I'm used to that I guess. Let's hope for the best.

Actually, I'm shocked. I bought 3 lbs of hamburger and two packs of chili spices and it lacked "volume", so I did what my granny who grew up during the depression used to do -- find whatever's in the cupboard and add it. One can of kidney beans, one can of diced tomatoes, and one jar of mild salsa later and the chili is surprisingly damn good!!! Who knew???

Hey Joel! I read through your website and the "Homosexuality for Dummies" section had me on the floor laughing. The chili is good, but I'm taking the number for poison control to work just in case. ;)

Just hamburger and purchased spice mixes with tomato sauce. The rest was added as needed above. I was a tad desperate I guess to have enough of it.
