Chili.
Elizabeth and I wanted to at least attempt to introduce an American classic to some of our friends here, even though this may not be the most typical chili ever. Since things like canned beans and tomatoes just aren't an option here, it definitely took longer than usual, but totally worth it. (Elizabeth boiled tons of dried beans for many, many hours and removed the skin off a LOT of tomatoes.) Definitely threw in a bunch of different spicy spices to help it along (or mask anything...) Luckily, it didn't have much competition since they had nothing to compare it to,. But people did ask for seconds and even thirds so I would consider it a success.

First round of friends, all from the kindergarten.
