Someone gave us a Honeybaked Ham for Christmas. Since it was frozen, we kept it until New Year's. I will not try to elaborate and tell you how good it tasted. Delicious would be an understatement. We are not ham connoisseurs but if there was a contest, the Honeybaked would take the blue ribbon without question.
. . . . . . . and tomorrow we resume a normal work schedule. It has been a GREAT vacation but you can't have a vacation without a job - - - so, back we'll go. As I have told you before, we both enjoy our employment.
Today after church, my husband and I went to visit a dear friend who has been a wonderful mentor to our younger daughter. This woman was the coordinator/supervisor/worker in our church's preschool. She not only gave our daughter opportunities to work but also has been a great encourager to her. My husband used to give this woman chili a couple of times a year when he cooked it. That was our main reason for going to her home today. Our conversation with her and her children was truly enjoyable.
My husband thinks this recipe for chili is the best he's eaten.
