chili

Ok, Not much happened this weekend unfortunately, went out on friday night to be the distraction, ended up hanging out with the other one and may get a date out of it, weird the way things work out. Last nights party was cool, thanks Jenn:) I drank alot and did about 30 jello shots I think, did most of them with this old Squid (Navy cat) and he was a fucking riot. Good times and good stories, and a wicked hangover this morning, but totaly worth it. Today I am making chili and not to be a dick, but I can make the fuck out of a batch of chili and if I play my cards right, this will be the last time I cook for the week. Unless this chick ends up coming over for dinner during the week, have to find a classy excuse to not have wine with dinner because I hate it more than Chris Reeves hates stairs. She knows I drink so that is out, and I look like a jerk if I get the wrong kind or carve my tongue out of my own face to get away from the terrible after taste wine leaves, and my balls are too big to cut it with sprite. I am welcoming ideas and thoughts from all on this. Think I am going Italian for that night, but can't say anything else on the chance she finds the link and reads this. I would like however, to share my chili recipe with you hip cats. Maybe someone will like it and maybe someone will have an idea to make it even better. I discovered last time not to buy cheap shit, it really does make a difference and fucked the last one up by trying to save 50 cents...

Recipe for chili:
3-4 mid size cans of tomato sauce and the small can of paste. Two cans of preferred beans, 1 pepper, green red or orange, which ever is cheapest:) 1 jalapeno (and yes I pronounce it the way it is spelled so there) garlic, chili, paprika, cumin, hot shot, crushed red pepper for spices/powders. 1 small package of stir fry steak and 2 pounds of sausage. giggity giggity goo

I don't have exact measurements for the spices, but i used a fuck ton of chili powder, probably a good 4 spoons of cumin, a little garlic powder, 1/3 of a thing of paprika, a pinch of sugar, smaller pinch of salt (which was a bad idea...) and I was very liberal with the hot shot pepper mix and crushed pepper. I also threw in about half a bottle of chipotle tobasco sauce, but like the original tobasco better. So far it looks pretty good, waiting for it to thicken, should have put more tomato paste in it I guess. For you hippies, you can use turkey sausage or vegetarian sausage and it doesn't affect the taste much if at all. It filled the crock pot all the way up and should be dinner all week long. Might have to put some more hot sauce in it, it tastes salty today, not sure why, I am blaming the store brand sausage I used instead of the Jimmy Dean hot stuff I usually use. But if your bored, give it a whirl and let me know how it turns out for you.

You cook the meat down whilst all the other jazz warms ujp in the pot. mix all together and let it slightly boil for about 4 beers. Then turn it down and take the lid off and let it rock out until you get hungry, it will thicken up more and taste a little better the next day, but fuck it I can;t wait that long:)

Band photo's got cancelled due to the weather today, hope to get those done soon.
