We have the second most venomous snake in the world here in our neck of the woods...South Australia.

I eat my chili without kidney beans now because I make it myself!KathyB.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13076933273610590290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-23180180805598777022009-07-06T23:30:13.436-04:002009-07-06T23:30:13.436-04:00Okay, I was afraid you were going to say your Moth...Okay, I was afraid you were going to say your Mother cooked the snake and used it the next round of chili soup.

I liked it I suppose. I really can't make chili that good so I buy mine in a can. lol We really like the Stagg brand. I buy it at Sams Club. This chili is thicker but I have to add some water to it so that my crackers will soak up the juice! That's the way I like it. <br /><br />As for Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15240864960032938754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-44071538319483156202009-07-06T16:32:25.430-04:002009-07-06T16:32:25.430-04:00We have a lady in our church who makes a chili sou...We have a lady in our church who makes a chili soup similar to what your mom did. It is so awful sweet! She loves to give people meals when a need arises, but oh...<br /><br />I do not think I could ever kill a snake. Thankfully, we have not seen any around here, but we do have a fake one by our back door that has thrown some of our guests for a loop.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01101766685572321533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-17324693696732078922009-07-06T16:04:57.814-04:002009-07-06T16:04:57.814-04:00Never had chili soup but had chili.

Mom (in-law) makes the best chili!<br /><br />I'm super phobic when it comes to snakes - can't even look at a photograph so I would be moving out of my house if a snake shows up somewhere closeby.<br /><br />Thanks for the visit and have a great week!GottaLoveMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04652133570422330201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-27373449221743248292009-07-06T16:04:21.948-04:002009-07-06T16:04:21.948-04:00I thought you were going to say after they came in...I thought you were going to say after they came inside, as if the soup wasn't making you sick enough, hearing about the chopped off head made you lose what soup you did manage to eat before that! I still pick the beans out of chili, by the way, even though I know they're full of protein.<br /><br />I guessed correctly which was the brother-in-law - do I get a prize, like a trip somewhereThe imPerfect Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09155280178284448740noreply@blogger.com
