sweet and savory

I discovered some photos on my memory card that I had meant to post last year!

Sweet
Over the holidays I wanted to make some sweets for my friends and coworkers but didn't want to spend a whole lot of time baking.  So I went with simple and quick recipes - peanut butter brittle and peppermint bark.


Embossed cards and pretty packaging makes everything look extra special.

Savory
This Superbowl Sunday (booo, next time Niners! :( ) compelled me to make this chili that I haven't made in about 4 years.  I finally felt ready again.  It's sooo time-consuming, but so gooood.


2 hours prep time, 3 hours cooking and stirring every 5 min, 3 types of fresh chili peppers, espresso, chocolate, and beer?  All these unusual ingredients come together to make a chili with a harmonious taste and lots of layers of flavor.

Thanks for the recipe, Joey!
