My daughter made some chili the other day with black eyed peas.... Good flavor, not a fan of the texture.
 
That's the way my mom made chili.

My daughter and my wife are of a different caliber. We can't share the recipe because we don't know the recipe. They grab herbs, beans, meat, chili, paprika, etc and toss it in the pot, stir, taste, add something else, taste again maybe some more of this or add some of that, taste again, yep!
lol and people still beg for it
 
Evening all! What a good day. Pool table is GONE. Starting to do some demo work on a old room that was down in the basement. All pine v match so going to try and save as much as possible for the fish room! Man I hate demo work when you want to save stuff :face-with-tears-of-joy: wife and I also went for a nice car ride out through the scenic bi ways through the western mountains and had a good day together! Hope all yours was good!

I was never a fan of the black eyed peas, they only had a few good songs
