Chili

I like Chili!

Peter Flom
I like chili quite a lot
Sometimes you just can't beat it.
You can argue about what it is
If you just let me eat it.
Texan or New Mexican
Or Mexican or other
Hey! I just finished off a bowl!
May I please have another?
Some say there must be beans
Some say there must be beef.
You can argue all you like.
And I won't cause you grief.
Just serve me up another bowl
And please! A spoon or fork
And you can argue all you like
About beef or beans or pork.

    I even made chili this summer when the temps were in the 90's. I fix a large pot, and freeze individual servings for later use. Cheap and nutritious. My favorite seasons for chili-making are approaching:)

    My husband makes an awesome chili and I can't even tell you what he puts in it because I still don't know! But, it's the best :) cheers!
