chili tonight

what is it about this weather makes me want to make and eat comfort food? tonight's pick - chili. my mother-in-law gave me her famous recipe. (i have modified it a bit - ground turkey instead of beef). it is so tasty, hearty and comforting on a cold gloomy evening! i usually make a huge pot so that we have left-overs for a couple meals - it actually tastes better reheated!! the only down side to lots of beans, meat, spices, garlic & onions - farting boys! our house may be smelly for the next few days - a small price to pay for some delicious home cooking! oh well.
