a day that is ideal 

A Coffee Pot – 

A chocolate chip cookie. Reading dailyprompts. Two steamed eggs. A dawn bike ride. A trip to Walmart before sunrise. In the rocking chair on the patio with a beer. Tuesday two dollar margaritas at my favorite Mexican restaurant. It doesn’t take much to make my day.

a favorite thing to cook 

A Hot Chili – 

A ground chuck 80/20, onions, garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, chicken broth, and dark red kidney beans. Salt and crushed red pepper after she takes the mild version. Goes well with elbow macaroni, American cheese, and raw onions. Best medicine for a sore throat.
