Chili for Snow Day!

We rarely get snow in Alabama,

and when we do,

it is often chaotic and troublesome~

and always a very big deal!

But Friday’s snow was predicted

and schools had announced closings 2 days before

We had time to get groceries and necessities,

and people were ready

We woke up to a winter wonderland!

No sitting on the patio this weekend!

Super Teen’s truck was wearing a snowsuit

It was predicted that we would get maybe an inch or so,

and then it would melt later in the day…

but we actually got about 5 inches

and there wasn’t much melting at all

Big E got busy building a snowman

Then he went sledding

Nobody went anywhere on Friday!

It was definitely time for comfort food,

how about a nice bowl of chili?

Loaded Pumpkin Slow Cooker Chili is so good,

you really don’t taste the pumpkin

It provides a velvety texture and a little sweetness

to offset the heat from the fire roasted tomatoes and chili beans

White Chicken & Corn Chili can be made in the Instant Pot or Slow Cooker

Julie’s Creamy Corn Muffins

are a perfect pairing with a bowl of chili

By mid day Saturday the roads were clear

but snow was still on the ground

We will need comfort food for a while!
