It's rainy and mildly chilly in Kansas City. October has come. Daylight wanes.
It's chili time!
When I got home from work this evening the yummy aroma greeted me before I even opened the kitchen door coming in from the garage. Could it be ... ? Would it be ... ?
Yesssss! A pot on the stove of my honey's famous three-bean blend. Piping hot. Steam rising from the kettle. White porcelain bowls of shredded cheese and chopped sweet onion sitting on the counter. Scads of oyster crackers.
After a way-too-stressful day at school, the one-dish dinner was just what I needed.
And for dessert, a slice of my youngest's birthday cake, a delightful piece of white-cake heaven.
Thank goodness for simple suppers and sugary finishes.

Hey, Kate ~
I love that this post (praising your honey's culinary skills and initiatives) follows the one before (a month ago), bemoaning the same - the pendulum swings back (to where it belongs, I might add... :-)
Now I am craving chili - we here in South Florida have to wait a while longer for the weather to turn a bit cooler... or else manually manipulate the air conditioner to simulate colder climes!
We're all about comfort food these days. Will your husband share his recipe?
