Life if better when someone makes you laugh

Do you have that one person in your life that just cracks you up?  You know… that one that keeps you healthy and laughing on a daily basis. Yeah, for me it’s my 9 year-old daughter (she’ll 10 this month). That child always says the silliest things. Here are some of the crazy shenanigans she said when she was 6.  Anyhow, she has had me busting a gut all week.  I wish I didn’t have the memory of an old fart because I can’t remember everything, but I do remember some of the things she said… or did.

Ed’s Award Winning Chili Recipe

It’s fall, the weather is cooling down and it’s chili making time.  My taste buds are acting up just thinking of the scrumptious taste of good chili.  And because I’m humble (word used loosely)  I won’t mention that my chili is in fact Award Winning Chile. haha. For four years straight I submitted this recipe in a chili cook-off and won first place every time. An ironic thing was one year the prize was a recipe book for CHILI.  ha. It kind of made me chuckle. Why in the world would you give someone that won a Chili cook-off  a recipe book on how to make chili. haha. It still makes me cackle at the thought.

Anyhow, I have kept my chili recipe top-secret for many years… until now. Oh wait… I just had a deceitful flashback. There was once a time when someone asked me a very difficult question {can I get your recipe}.  I was stupefied at that simple question. I went blank. I started twitching. I was desperately trying to figure out how I could get out of it. I thought I was going to have a panic attack because I don’t like to say no to people and I REALLY wanted to say no to this nameless person. But y’all can relax because as quickly as I was dumbstruck with that difficult question a light bulb went off. Well it kind of flickered…. in agony.

I remembered an episode from the TV show, Everybody Loves Raymond when Marie left out an ingredient so Debra {her daughter in law} looked like an incompetent cook. I figured if it’s done on TV why not do it in real life.  Yup! I sure did scoop down to that level.  I gave this nameless person the recipe to my award wining chili… BUT I left out my “secret” ingredient.  Yes, I know…. that was deceitful of me, but in my defense, I didn’t want that nameless person to enter MY chili in the chili cook-off so I had no other choice.  Come on, you would’ve done the same thing right? If not, just humor me and say I was in the right! HA!

My award-winning chili is ridiculously easy to make. Gosh, I still can’t believe I’m about to do this. So here’s the big reveal….. {insert drum roll}

Roaring Fork & Blended

 

Last month I was lucky enough to be invited to attend an evening in Scottsdale to dine with a group of bloggers. The event was hosted by Roaring Fork restaurant as well as Blended Conference.  Prior to this event, I hadn’t  heard of Roaring Fork and was in AWE mode as soon as I walked into the doors.  The restaurant was absolutely beyond beautiful.  As soon as I was seated, I was offered the most amazing drink ever! I had a bottomless cup of Huckleberry Lemonade.   Throughout the e vening we were able to taste many items on the menu .   In reality, we were given more than what we could eat, but since I like to eat, I ate pretty much everything that was put in front of me.  Keep Reading
