Chili

   I think chili is one of those things that everyone does a little bit differently.  We made a batch earlier in the week, using a recipe from our trusty Better Homes and Gardens New Junior Cookbook.  (The edition we have is the 1978 edition, not the most recent, very cartoony one.) 
    Usually, chili is supposed to simmer several hours to be good, but this recipe cooks for less than an hour, start to finish, and we've liked it a number of times.  Its quite from scratch, apart from using canned kidney beans.  Onions, green peppers, ground beef, and plenty of beans and tomato make a pretty good finished product.
   We also must wish my father-in-law and my sister-in-law the best of luck in a chili cookoff tomorrow!
