Calling all cooks: chili cheese fries

Not a big thing, but how would you layer a plate of Chili Cheese Fries?

A: fries, chili then cheese

As you can see, we have cheese on top here.

or

B: fries, cheese then chili

Both are mutally meesy, but oh so good. A or B

Interesting: Calling all cooks, chili

I bought this cockpot last week at a thrift store for $6.96. I put the salt shaker in the picture so you can determine the size of my cockpot. What size do you think it is?

My next project will be Chili. I will shop for the ingredients tomorrow (Sunday) and cook it tomorrow night. I already have 2.25 pounds of burger and I want it spicy, good and spicy.

What I want from All of you; is to tell me how to make it. I know I can call my son (who is a great cook and I will call, text or tag him), ask some friends or Google it (actually I already Goggled it), please give me your personal recipes for my enjoyment. 😊

I want as many of your choice tidbits as possible, so I can mish-mash some of them and eventually have my own.

Note: When my son, Billy, was eight he told me, “Dad we don’t like your cooking.” I’m not sure, but I think I laughed. What did happen for sure though, I bought my oldest son, Jamie, a cook book. He has become an excellent cook and I have enjoyed his dishes for years. That was one of the best books I have ever purchased excluding scripture of course.

Interesting: Calling all cooks, pinto beans

I have two bags of pinto beans, a shank ham bone and some ham fat. I want to slow cook them.

Looking for: what food to add, what spices to add, temperature and times on the different temperatures.

I can probably cut chunks of ham and put them in there too. What do you guys think?

These beans are two years old, does that make a difference?

No Shave November

Me on my houseboat, in October of 2016

I never have been one who shaves on a regular basis, so when No Shave November came along, it was right up my alley.

I didn’t take this picture, I swiped it from the internet

There are several reasons for letting your facial hair grow. The first one’s simple, maybe you want to keep your face warm during the upcoming winter. Next, you might be moving to the mountains and you want to fit in with the Grizzly Bears. Or, how about you’re becoming a hillbilly, but not the Beverly Hillbillies, because you have no oil. Of course we can’t forget the fact that you might not belong to the Dollar Shave Club, It’s got to be cheaper than Wal-Mart.

This picture is about five years old and has nothing to do with the post. I just like it

I promote No Shave November, because it’s a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing attention to men’s health. The money raised goes to cancer prevention, research and education.

We were heading up the mointsins a month ago to find that Grizzly Bear

Prostate, testicular, colorectal, and skin cancers are just a few that I might succumb to. It’s something that I can earnestly get behind, because I’ve already had skin cancer and have an enlarged prostate.

This means I will not shave in November.
