One way we serve chili is take a bag of Fritos, spoon a dump of chili into it, add shredded cheese, sour cream and a spoon.
I heard a strange thing today. TX corn farmers have noticed the spanish (TX) thistle is blooming which portends an early winter. Apparently the plant blooms 6 weeks before the first frost, which would put the first frost at Sept 1 or so? The one I heard this from got this from the centex corn belt.
Meant Oct 1.
mmmmmmmm Frito Pie! As guilty pleasures go that's pretty darn high on the list!
Regarding the early winter; Al Gore says we are all going to be scorched by the sun until we drown from melting polar ice caps. What the heck do Texas Corn Farmers know about farming anyway! /sarcasm
Interesting...just yesterday, up here in the Oregon Territory, Mr. Inspectorette saw a flock of geese flying south. We had a nasty winter last year, and are not looking forward to it starting too early!
