We are in for a solid run of global warming winter, with sub-zero daytime highs, and a night temp on Wednesday to come of about -25. Looking at 6-8 of snow, Sunday evening into Monday morning. Stiff winds out of the Northwest will make for unpleasant outdoor conditions next week.

Good heavens. What to do?

Chilli, of course:




Hamburger, ground pork, chuck steak, poblanos, Anaheims, bell peppers, oregano, masa heraina, and some other stuff. It is not overly hot tasting, white guy chilli, I guess.



Johnny cake (cornbread) in cast iron, the only way Johnny cake should be attempted. I prefer it over charcoal, but, that wasnt in the cards this evening:



I have a honey/butter concoction that goes on the Johnny cake. The beer is a Brazilian import, sort of a wheaty pale that would offend no one. It was good with dinner.



Hope you guys are warm, and eating well.

Best,
Ted
