Okay…this is the best beef chili I’ve EVER had. Wanda (yes, really, her mother named her Wanda. And it’s not short for Wandaleen or Wandashellski) is a woman that loves to give her talents to others. Meaning she gets such pleasure to give to others. So this recipe comes with love!
She served this at a couple parties and to be honest, I think I went to a party just because I knew she was goign to be serving this amazing chili. So make sure you pin this somewhere.

DONE!! Can you say HAPPY PEOPLE??? (yes that is a link to an article on how to be happy!)
Below are several links to things I love. (This site is everything I love and have learned!)
The first is a link to make Jam. Homemade jam. Yes, that is an option in the world. I had no idea. I thought jam came from cans. (Lordy!) After that is a snake cake that tells you cakes don’t have to be just a square or a rectangle. Have fun and play. The third link is a yummy recipe for my friend Karen’s Blue Martini. Such a fun festive drink. Total game changer for your guests to be holding blue martini.
Enjoy my friends!!
