I am going to make chicken with stuffing for dinner tonight and tomorrow meatloaf cause it is only going to be in the 40s for high temps.

Frito corn chips in the bottom of a bowl, chili
on that with your choice of toppings - we usually put shredded cheese and onions on top. The local BBQ joint makes it with corn chips, shredded pulled pork, bbq sauce and bbq beans - SOOOO good!!

House. Milk chocolate or Dark chocolate?
Chocolate cake with chocolate icing!
My mother didn't like chocolate (is that unAmerican or what?) so it was always a real treat for me on my birthday when she made a chocolate cake with chocolate icing. 
Chocolate cream pie, whipped cream & chocolate shavings on it!
PLUS:
Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream.
Pumpkin pie with a 2:1 ratio of whipped cream to pie.
A root beer float.
Chocolate chip cookies, or else soft, iced molasses ones - warm from the oven, of course!
And for dessert, a few chocolate Easter bunnies and a dark chocolate Hershey bar with almonds.
You can use them in turkey chili for one
thing. DH is the cook, but he does that. After adding chili powder it will still taste like chili, which he puts basil in anyway.
Ground turkey (brown first)
tomato sauce
canned tomatoes
onion
canned red beans
canned black beans
frozen lima beans
Picsweet frozen corn added near end of cooking time.
Add browned ground turkey and all ingredients in a crock pot and cook together, except hold the corn out until near the end for sweetest, freshest zing in your chili. The frozen limas and corn are colorful and fresh-tasting additions, we find.
Green and red chili!!!
In my opinion there's not much that can't be made better by the addition of green or red chili. I cook pinto beans with lots of green chili and bacon bits with a bunch of spices and they are sooooo good. And the combination of potatoes and red chili to me is just one of the best things ever.
LOL, sounds like my house. DH is making his chili, YUM
He got off work early because of the icy rain.
check out this recipe/link for chili
It's pretty good, although I prefer the package kind and with less meat. My son likes this one, though. It calls for FIVE POUNDS LOLOL!! I just use 3...I can't even see how 5 pounds would work. Three is pretty much ;-)
How about a crystal bowl or something on that

SUPER BOWL
GabbyChic,
I suggest you actually watch this game. Been a Steeler fan 30+ years, eventhough, I moved to Texas in 88. I promise you, this won't be boring.
Tortilla chips and chili cheese dip. I make
the dip with velveeta mexican mild cheese and 1 can of chili without beans. Recipe is on velveeta box. I also get lots of fruits - strawberries, bananas, kiwi, apples, marshmallows and a whole bunch of other things and cut it up myself. I also have a very small crockpot that I put 2 bags of chocolate chips in to melt - goes great with the fruit and keeps most of the kids (and adults) happy. I buy a bag of shish kabob sticks so they can dip everything instead of having fingers going in. Buy some sandwich meat and cheese, spread it nicely on a platter, get different kinds of bread and let them make their own sandwiches. Macaroni and potato salad.
The guys in my family have a chili/soup cookoff
so the women don't have to do much except enjoy. I like the below poster mainly enjoy the commercials. This year is a little more special becuase one of the Giants graduated just a few years ago from the high school my children now attend. I can still remember constantly hearing his name at all the high school football games.
Add green chili and some cheese, and I'd have died and gone to heaven! nm

Also good with frozen meatballs, jelly and chili sauce
yummy, just put in a crockpot.
Be sure to open a coupla windows....chili is a fart-fest...sm
They'll get to jumpin' up and yellin' at the TV/game after feeding and all of a sudden somebody will rip a ripe one! Ya may as well consider making that classic Knorr Swiss spinach dip with lots of shallots/onions as well.... Cat
Frito pie made with homemade chili and cole slaw.

Colts are Super Bowl Champs sm
Woohoo! GO COLTS!
Ahhh the memories, my mother used to bowl
on Thursday nights (30yrs ago) and she always made a crockpot of pinto beans since my dad didn't like to eat out. BTW, am having homemade chicken nuggets with a couple of very simple homemade dipping sauces.
Having our annual Super Bowl party
Just a few close friends. We're having pizza and chicken wings and my the neighbors bring over various dishes. One usually brings over a great hot chicken wig dip and my husband will make chilli in the crockpot. My friend and I just like to watch the commercials. LOL. After we eat and see the halftime show, the kids and women go across the street for our own party.
Tell Us ABout Yer Super Bowl Plans this Year.
what are you doing? Making? Will ya be on your own or having peeps over?
Having our annual Super Bowl Party
We have one every year. We're having about 15 friends over. Pizza, wings, assorted munchies and whatever dishes our friends decide to bring. It's a lot of fun even though I just watch the Super Bowl for the commercials, and the halftime show.
Grabs bowl of popcorn and puts feet up
This is almost better than watching TV sometimes.
I bowl on Thursday nights so it's take out for the rest of the family - NM

Did anyone watch any of the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet? SM
I watch it every year, but this year was particulary funny! Such adorable breeds playing running, jumping on each other, etc. I laughed my head off. The little Westie was just darling, and the little Corgie pups were so sweet. 
Do any of your cats drop their toys in the water bowl?
It's the funniest thing with mine. When Lucky was a baby he'd drop his toys in the toilet and just have a blast trying to fish them out. Then he'd come jump up on the desk with me and shake his wet paws off. Lucky and Sofia both drop their toys in the water bowl. Sofia loooooooves those little fur mice. She will go to town chasing them around and then she drowns them either in the water bowl or the toilet. I have learned to check before I sit down on the potty - I think I've flushed more than one mouse away.
They say that, but all of us as kids licked the bowl/spoon/beaters from cake
mixes and no one I know ever got sick.

Anything chocolate!!!

Chocolate!
 Cadbury's milk chocolate
my chocolate lab
My lab is VERY STRONG - but luckily very loving and good natured. . We constantly are in the training process. He is about a year old now and loves everybody . but I get what you're saying and I think all dogs do have the potential to be aggressive if not trained/treated properly.
Hot chocolate mix
My sister-in-law's church made hot chocolate to give to their homebound friends at church. They used powdered hot chocolate mix but added creamer and milk chocolate chips to it. They put it in a Mason jar covered with fabric and tied a ribbon around it. It was really cute and it really does taste wonderful!! I don't know if you would want to give that to your boss, but I might make some for neighbors and keep some on hand for unexpected gifts we receive.
chocolate
I would stash them in the cupboard and eat them by the handful when no one was watching....
But if you must drink them I would add a drop of vanilla, cinnamon and some sugar to the melted chocolate thinned with milk.....:)
Chocolate Mousse
I could eat it every day. Yum.

That is Maggie our chocolate lab - she always has - sm
her nose into everything, no crumb is safe in our house!
Coffe and Chocolate
I quit coffee and chocolate by switching to Ginger. I buy ginger in bulk from gingerpeople.com. Crystalized ginger, ginger boosts, anything ginger. I also like Siberian Gingseng (another herb from health food store). Makes me just as happy and awake as chocolate and it is fat free.
One family had a Chocolate,
Strawberry, and Vanilla as girl names.
Years ago heard of a Dorkus.
Know two females named Michael.
Grew up with a kid (boy) named Kelly Green
Hot Chocolate Recipe
I'm looking for a good hot chocolate recipe using semi-sweet chocolate and regular milk (not cream or half-and-half). I over bought on the chocolate chips. I have checked recipes.com and will check a few other sites later. Just thought in the meantime someone here might have a good recipe to share. :) TIA!
Must be a chocolate kind of day...sm
I had a handful of M&Ms and a cup of hot chocolate for lunch. Unfortunately, I'm still sleepy.
valentine's chocolate

I got 5 pounds of chocolate candy
Hubby remembered one night...just 1 night...and can't remember when, that I was so hungry for a piece of chocolate, he gave me 5 pounds of chocolate for Christmas!!! I love chocolate but not that much!!!! I think he wants me to get fat. 
I ate 2 pieces so far since Christmas. Hmmmmmmmmmm, think I'll go grab a piece now. It seems to be calling me.
EGAD! I just tried hot chocolate with caffeine!
Want to up my line count. Found Swiss Miss hot chocolate with caffeine. I am jumping out of my skin! Had to let you all know if coffee rips your stomach apart this may be an alternative. But I have not yet experienced the crash if at all from the sugar. But man, I am out of my skin!
I'd better go type now so I can take advantage of the line count. Yikes! This is quite a caffeine chocolate burst...LOL
mystery. Chocolate or vanilla?
