i did enjoy a very timely conversation with naphtali. and then i figured i should at least make supper, and chili sounded so good as the tree branches were scraping against the house. so i hit the kitchen. tim and i found this cast iron dutch oven at an auction 30(?)(!) years ago and it has been our go-to pot ever since. food that simmers in here just tastes sooooo good.
we like to have something sweet in the house for..... those times that you need to have something sweet in the house. this has become a stand-by for us:
honey glazed almonds. starting with a cold oven set to 350 roast 2 cups raw almonds for 12-20 minutes.
melt together 2 tbsp butter and 1/4 cup honey
stir in the almonds and coat evenly.
pour onto a lightly greased sheet and cool. sprinkle with turbinado and store in an airtight container.
and while the oven is on let's add cornbread to the menu!
hope you're enjoying a seasonal day wherever you are.
