Champion

Let's lighten the mood here. It's been a rough couple of days in Indiana and that's led to a rough couple of posts. So what's been going on worth celebrating? Well...

I won the New Albany-Floyd County Public Library's 3rd Annual Chili Cook-Off! Yeah I did! Prize winning chili of awesomeness? You betcha!

I'm sure you're dying to know all of the details. The are as follows: the library does an annual chili cook-off, one of my coworkers talked me into it, and I took an entire crock pot full of amazing chili down to the competition. Oh yeah, and then I won. Wooo!

Two of my cutie students came to support me. This is them "creepin' on the chili."

Want the recipe? Hmm... okay. Here's the link: http://createatoriumcrafts.blogspot.com/2011/01/vegan-3-bean-chili.html. Here's how I tweaked it: add a can of great northern beans, 2 shakes of cayenne, and one shake of cinnamon. Oooh baby! It is so good!
