I am the Chili Queen!!


Guess What?!!!! I won the Chili Cook Off at our church's Harvest Festival last night! Talk about a wonderful surprise and boy was I shocked!!!!

Our church does a harvest festival and this is the first one Andy and I had been to. They announced that they were going to hold a chili cook off, and I said to myself "I am definitely getting in on that".

If you have read my posts in the past, I have been in the professional Chili-Cook Off for the past couple of years, only doing Chili Verde myself and the team doing red. Losing all the way, but having a blast doing it.

So I took my favorite recipe and for the heck of it, I tried it, and WON!!!!! When they asked over the speaker who's Crock Pot is this (my mouth dropped as I saw them walking down the aisle with it) I screamed like a little school girl!!!! I even jumped up and down! YaHOOOOOOO! I won! What did I win, where's my trophy? No trophy, what I got was bragging rights for the year, so here is my winning trophy. listen very carefully, I WON THE CHILI COOK-OFF! Yea!!! Where's my crown?

It was a great time, a lot of fun and the newby took the prize, yeah!!!!!

About time you won!!! I guess bragging rights is as good as your gonna get but that better than being runner up again! Happy for you, Sis.

Thank you, I thought I sucked too! If you want to know the truth I really don't know if my chili was THAT good, but I think the other chili's were let's just say questionable???? I just like to make a good bowl of chili with cornbread! I am an addict with chili!!!
