The Last of the Chili

Eastside Road, February 2, 2010—

YES, NOW THAT YOU mention it, I do feel a little stupid: in describing the chili a couple of days ago I forgot to mention the tomatoes. They were canned, as tomatoes must be this time of year. The beans weren't, of course; we almost never eat canned beans any more (though a couple of cans of cannellini are useful objects in the pantry, next to the canned tuna).

Well, it was delicious, garnished with chopped cilantro, raw onions, and grated cheddar cheese; but it's gone now. A dish of broccoli before; green salad after.
