Well, I have 5 batches of Chili sitting at my house. Every Sunday, my mother-in-law, my husband's aunt, and his grandma all take turns bringing different things for Sunday lunch. This week was my turn to bring the main dish. I decided on Chili. Well, we have a big family and usually always invite others from church for lunch as well. So, I decided to make 5 batches of my Chili recipe so I would have enough for 20 people. I decided to be efficient last night and make up the ground beef ahead of time, so when I got to Chris's grandmother's house, all I had to do was add everything in the pots and bam! - Chili for 20! Well, due to the freezing rain we received this morning, we were not able to make it down for church. So now I have 5 lbs. of ground beef made up for Chili and 15 cans of all the beans and tomato sauce needed for the Chili sitting in my cupboards. I am going to be very tired of ground beef, pinto beans, kidney beans, and tomato sauce. Can someone please pass the Beano?

Oh, your mother must be so proud of her girls! If there's one thing I remember about Di Fouts, it is this...cooking mass amounts of ground beef (or turkey)- whether it was preparation for jerry hodges coming for dinner, 10 people starting new diets, or a trip out west - she was always preparing food!
I love family traditions like your Sunday dinner thing...what a gift.
LOL, Jerry Hodges coming for dinner. Oh man, that was hilarious.
Just think, you dont have to cook dinner for like 3 weeks!
I hope chris loves chili!
