chili

There's something for everyone to do in East Texas this weekend.

There are some fun things happening around East Texas this weekend.

I am a life long Texan and East Texan and its amazing how I still run across something I never knew about our state or region from time to time.

We're very polite in Texas but there are a select few things that will make us not so polite.

With the cold snap in East Texas, this is the perfect time for a nice, hot bowl of chili.

You might as well call me "Karen" because I want to speak to a manager! Y'all got me clutching my invisible pearls over here. Chili is supposed to have BEANS in it! If you are allergic or hate beans in general, then, of course, this debate is not for you. Keep on scrolling.

After all, chili is STILL the official food of the Lone Star State.

Some lovely Irish folks sat down and tried some Texas staples of our dinner table. Well, a couple of them are. I have to question the mushroom soup.

Chili lovers - Saturday is for you! You can sample all kinds of homemade chili during the annual Rose City Chili Pod cookoff in Tyler!

With the Super Bowl coming up and friends looking for snacks, you might be looking for something fattening that you eat on a chip.  Here you go!

Can we eat chili when it's partly cloudy and 57? That's the forecast today and it seems a little warm for chili, but Texans have to go for it while we can.  January is chili season, and I just gotta share my favorite chicken chili recipe with you.
