Time was when blasting out the Stones meant playing “Sympathy for the Devil” at high volume in the car. Now at my advanced age it means blasting a whole bunch of little green globs of toxins into the toilet as a result of the latest liver flush.

Making chili is an experience for me. It is not merely cooking something. I just can’t cook chili on demand. It just has to happen. Whether it’s some sort of celestial convergence, the number of days before or after the equinox, or simply that I’m hungry, I get this feeling in my […]
