This is chili made from our grass fed beef, garlic, tomatoes, bell peppers and dried beans(from the store)!
We had a surprise rain-hail storm yesterday here and in Birmingham.  It had just started as we left to drive to town with dinner for us and the daughter's family!  We left our sweet dog, Belle home alone because we thought we would just drive home after dinner and Reid's b-ball game.   Welllllllll.......we did but his game was canceled  and the roads were covered with ice and rain...We were patient and waited a little while for the rush hour people to clear and started home about 6:30 pm.

Here is a picture of Belle patiently waiting.  This is one of her favorite spots to wait and watch.
Oh that we could learn to wait and hope patiently!
We made it home with melting ice on the car safe!  Thank you Father.
I hope you all have a good safe weekend.
