Church Chili Cook Off

The first friday of every month our church does a Free Friday Food Fest. January was the second annual chili cook off. I didn't enter, but I'm thinking my white chicken chili might have to go in next year so I can show these people how it's done!

There weren't nearly as many entries this year and I think the cold kept some people at home, but it was still nice to get out.

This young lady's chili won. She made corn bread pancakes to go with it!

This is our associate pastor, Pastor Lizzy, and her husband.

If you like my photography (and many of you tell me you do), PLEASE leave comments on my pictures throughout this year. I don't know if I'll be able to continue without that encouragement. Also needed will be suggestions for photography subjects or locations. I'm always looking for ideas!

Black Cherry Delight Popcorn

One of many awesome wedding gifts we received was a cookbook titled 101 Things to do with Popcorn. There are some interesting recipes inside and some really fun ones. I've made a couple and decided to try something new tonight. I didn't have the right ingredients for anything specific from the book, so I mixed and matched and came up with my own concoction. To start, you need some popped popcorn. We don't want the special butter or movie popcorn you can buy in the store because we're putting our own topping on it. So we want to start with about 1/3 cup of unpopped kernels and we're going to dump them in a regular old brown paper lunch bag. Fold up the top of the bag so the kernels don't come out as they pop. My microwave has a popcorn setting. If yours doesn't, just put it in for about 3 - 4 minutes and listen for the popping to slow. After the popcorn is popped comes my least favorite step. It's a little awkward, but necessary if...

Computers...

So far so good, but it hasn't even been 12 hours yet, so we'll see how it goes. Man, am I glad I hold on to these things!

Fair after Dark

We stayed late at the fair last night so I could get a couple pictures of the rides after dark. I love the lights!
