chili. one of those things that i can cross off the to-do list. picked this recipe to try and added in some homemade ham my mom gave me. the verdict? interesting. boyfriend liked it...i thought it was okay. with the ham added in, it was definitely not your typical chili taste. i'll probably try to do this again but with a different recipe. now on to the show!
