Update on the white chili

Kim asked if I really put cinnamon sugar in it. I really did, but … the cinnamon sugar was sitting there on the cupboard by the stove. I usually just sprinkle some salt in, but I had already painstakingly measured the salt in. My family is always accusing me of not salting the food. I thought cloves was an interesting spice to use. In my mind cloves & cinnamon go together, so I picked up the cinnamon sugar shaker & sprinkled some on. The original recipe didn't call for salsa either, but I thought it sounded good, so I added some.

For lunch today I had a bowl of leftover chili. It had gotten stronger over night. I choked almost from the first bite. Nick told me he added salsa to it last night. I told him I had put a whole cup in it. He said it needed more. So, in telling Don tonight, he said he added more salsa, too.
