Round One…
This year’s chili assault began with my favorite chili from last year: Pleasant Ridge Chili. I deviated from the formula and ordered two cheese coneys with extra mustard and a three way. That is spaghetti topped with chili and cheese.
The chili could have used a little more salt and the spice was kind of mild, but overall it made for an excellent first outing.
That is how to eat a cheese coney in case you wondered.
In keeping with my great success last year, this year at the record store I found vinyl copies of The Rolling Stones’ “Beggar’s Banquet”, “Let It Bleed”, and “Exile On main Street.” Yay me. As of yet I have had little succes turkey hunting, but that is generally how it goes. Hopefully today I will post two more chili reviews if I ever figure out how to work my damned camera. Also look forward to an account accompanied with pictures of my conquering of the “Atomic Wing Challenge” at Quaker Steak And Lube. Ouch.
Until Next time…

I’m not familiar with Pleasant Ridge version but I’ve had extensive experience with Skyline and Goldstar. My standard order is similar to yours: a three way and one or two cheese coneys, no onion, extra pkg of oyster crackers. I hope you are doing research for the menu at the Alchemist! BTW, do you know the secret ingredient in the chili? I can tell you if you don’t know. Hope you had a good trip and the folks back here did a good job with your new kitchen.

That picture is awesome.
Did you ever call the record store about the Goat’s Head Soup switcheroo?
