Today has meet all of my requirements for the first chili of the season. It will be what I call Cafeteria Chili: ground beef, tomatoes, peppers, beans, onion and chili powder.
We could have had leftovers, but Jay got into the taco shells this morning. He ate two, and was probably planning on eating the third one we found on the floor. He also gave Ada one.We are short on shells now. It is my fault. I left food within stool climbing reach.
After picking up Ada, we made a trip to the bookstore. Not what we need more books, but it is cold and raining and that is a perfect place to spend some time. We went to Half Price Books this time, and I found The Rise of Endymion in hardcover in fantastic condition, also for less than the quick-to-fall-apart mass market paperback. I saw it at a glance as I was passing through the SciFi section. I cannot even believe it. I just need Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion to grace a used bookshop shelf. After spotting this one, I looked. No dice. This was the only Dan Simmons book on the shelf. I picked up a few other books for a great price, and Ada picked up a wad of Hello Kitty activity books.
