A Recipe – Just in Time for National Chili Day
National Chili Day. Well, of course, there is a national day for chili and chili lovers. And it is this week. On the 25th, to be exact. I’ve noticed that folks tend to be very particular about their chili. What kind of beans should be added. Or should there even…
