Just in case you haven't had enough of the Green Bay Packers.....

Went to the Viking-Packer game last night.

Of course, you all know, soldiers are near and dear to my heart. I was all over the salute to veterans.

Couldn't resist the close up of the cheese heads. :)

Mary Ann and Kathy Siegrist.

Burgers before the game at Curley's pub. Plenty of time before we find our seats.

Love that American flag.

Memories in the making. No better place than with with Mr. S.

Packers just won, Justin is going to Disney World

We left Key West today.

You should have seen the sense of wonder and excitement on everyone's face when they discovered the Garmin's next "where to" displayed Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

Holy Wind.....Turkey Chili

The wind is A-BLOWING today and better yet to quote Holly, "Holy Wind!"

Remember the post, "Going Home"written after Cammie's wedding?
It spoke of turkey chili and homemade bread, mmmmmm, delicious.

I made a batch of turkey chili on Sunday just in time for the Packer vs. Vikings game. It was good then (the chili, not the game) and just as good reheated for supper tonight.

Turkey Chili (Serves 8)

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 small onion, diced

1 lb. lean ground turkey

1    14 1/2 oz can diced (sometimes I used crushed) tomatoes

1    10 1/2 oz can black beans, drained

1    10 1/2 oz can kidney beans, drained

1    10 1/2 oz can low sodium chicken broth

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cumin

1 or 2 tsp cinnamon (or to taste)

1/8 tsp cayenne

In a large pot, heat the oil on medium-low

Add the onion and saute until soft (about 3-5 minutes). Add the turkey and brown it (about 5 minutes).

Add the remaining ingredients. Stir and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
