Gonna grow my own til snowfall. I know one oregano is better to cook with than the other but can't remember which. Should I have bought the Mexican oregano?

I'm not a vegetarian, but prefer the beans to the beef, but that would just be bean soup, wouldn't it? :)KathyAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12723937251892708482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362192907007766017.post-39476081607816189652011-06-19T08:17:00.955-07:002011-06-19T08:17:00.955-07:00Veggie chili for me, and even that is rare.

Going to the fair today. I will gaze at the fried foods and then rejoice that I am content with a good root beer.Captain Pooliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08428392323868595583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362192907007766017.post-41715986788244750582011-06-18T16:23:08.966-07:002011-06-18T16:23:08.966-07:00thanks, I love chili and will try your LBJ recipe....thanks, I love chili and will try your LBJ recipe. I make quite a bit even though it's just me I feed, I've found it freezes in me size containers just fine. If I have company I defrost the appropriate number of containers. And yes, I too still use ground beef at times, sometimes with or without chili, if I use turkey I use some of my son's home done pork sausage.

I would leave him one or two, and he would say "you did a good job keeping out the beans.")<br /><br />I often stretched the leftovers using rice, until I found out that the rice pushed my blood glucose up. Now I don't make it at all, because it would take me a week to use it up all by myself.Harriethttp://l-empress.liscious.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362192907007766017.post-66324078094820413512011-06-18T09:22:45.278-07:002011-06-18T09:22:45.278-07:00Sounds great!
