Chili
It was a cold day in South Florida. We spent most of the day outside, and I still can’t feel my fingers!! 60 is our new 20!
*Yes, I am whining! No, I don’t care. This is my blog, and I can do that
Today, I have another cool weather recipe to share.
Huck and I love Chili! We call this our Chili Gumbo because we add okra. I’m not sure how the okra made it into our chili, but it’s one of my favorite parts.
I can’t feel my toes!
Really, I can’t. I’m in front of the heater, too.
Yesterday, we left BEAUTIFUL Palm Beach Co around 10AM. The temp….
We stopped somewhere near Macon, and got our first taste of the cold….
We debated turning around and heading back South, but figured we drove that far. No since in backing out now.
We were luck to arrive in Flowery Branch right as the cold front was moving through…
Currently, I’m working in front of a space heater with socks on (I NEVER WEAR SOCKS BTW), jeans, scarf, and a jacket. The last time I wore my heavy jacket was over a year ago. Next year, we are having Christmas at our house!! Just so everyone knows.
The weather does put you in the Christmas spirit. Looking at Christmas lights in flip flops and a sundress doesn’t scream Christmas to me.

I put together a list of my favorite cold weather recipes. These are sure to warm you up.
- Black Bean Soup with funny looking Tamales
I brought everything with me to make Hot Chocolate and Spiked Coffee. I may go make some for me and my mommy!! It is so nice being home! Even though I’m cold
