Since the Stupidbowl Superbowl is tomorrow, here is our traditional food for the day. Larry makes it and we eat it with cornbread, crackers or tortilla chips. Your choice. I LOVE it!

Larry’s Chili with Beans

1 lb. hamburger
2 T. peanut oil
1 large yellow onion, peeled and chopped
3 gloves garlic, peeled and crushed
2 T hot commercial chili powder (or to taste)
1 T. whole cumin seeds
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1 large can (28 ounces) tomatoes, Pureed in a blender OR
1 large can crushed tomatoes
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 lb cooked black beans (or your bean of choice), rinsed

Brown the beef in the oil, along with the onion, garlic, and chili powder. When the meat is brown and the onion clear, drain the fat and add remaining ingredients, including the beans. Simmer for at least 1 and 1/2 hours. You can add seasonings as you wish. You can also simmer it in the crockpot all afternoon on low.

This month is Valentine's Day so I'm giving you a love month of my own, in no particular order. There will be pics and poems and pretty things... and other stuff too! I like themes!

Captain America is my first love this month. I never read comics except for Archie ones when I was 12 and at the beach. I watched Superman and Batman on TV as a kid and the Spiderman cartoon series in the late 60s. I enjoyed the first Superman movie and some of the Batman movies.

Then we saw Captain America: The First Avenger and I was ass over teakettle in love with the whole thing - went back and watched the Iron Man movies and haven't missed any since. First, Cap is gorgeous. pretty, blond, sweet, built and sooo nice. What's not to love? I have a weakness for fair haired boys. I even married one. I have a weakness for good guys. Married one. He fit the bill!

So here he is, Chris Evans as Captain America:
