Here comes the cold...

Brrrr! I was pleasantly surprised at how warm last night was despite the rain, should have known I would wake up to strong winds bringing in the cold air! It is November after all! I'm so glad that last week I bought a winter coat. This time I bought an all black one. The last coat I had, I picked one with a lot of white on it; and I couldn't keep it looking clean. So, all black for me! :) I also bought a super cute 20's style hat to keep my head warm. I'm not going to lie...I'm kind of excited to get bundled up! (I know that's wierd...but it's like having new clothes. I never can wait to wear new clothes.)

I made chili last night for to have for dinner today. It's a great recipe I got from allrecipes.com and it's made with ground turkey instead of hamburger meat. I made the chili last year but I had used hamburger meat. This time I followed the instructions and used the turkey. I'm sorry but ground turkey is sooooo gross looking before it is cooked, and quite honestly it's a pain in the rearend to cook. After all, it's poultry...so you definately have to make sure there is no pink, so it took me forever to brown the meat, but once everything was put together I don't think you can tell the difference between using the hamburger vs the turkey, except that of course the chili is not even the slightest bit greasy, which is a good thing of course!

Just wanted to put a quick shout out to my lil sis, Charlotte...I'm proud of you for finding a great paying job! You will be a great customer service representative! Go get em! LOVE YOU! :)
