Let your heart feel the happiness in those words: it's time. Time for what, you ask?
Time for chili, friends.
We have an Atchley tradition. We stop eating chili when the weather warms up, long about middle April. We don't let a bite of that magical stuff pass our lips until the weather reports forecast the evening temperatures to dip into the 40's.
A forecasted low of 49 is just enough. For 49 degrees, we'll pull all the makin's for chili out of the cupboard.
Tonight, for the first time since last early-spring, the temperatures are going to dip all the way down to about 47 degrees. There is anticipation in the very air in the cottage today.
It's time.

Granddad & I LOVE chili!!! He keeps lovingly *reminding* me that the last time I made chili for him was --- well, we'll just say "quite some time ago". I think I need to do some grocery shopping for some ingredients now ...
