Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Topic of the Day:  corn, chili, pie fillings and pizza sauce are what I can think of right now.

I still can't read today's notes on this computer.  Maybe I'll be able to read them on my phone.

The TOD reminds me of something I tried a few days ago, just in case it could possibly be any good. After all, I love a good chili dog now and then.

Google "Steve & Ed's hot dog chili sauce". I was at the store, about to pick up my standard Hormel's chili with no beans (which I use for chili dogs and the occasional chili-onion-cheese omelet), and I saw this product on the next shelf. The illustration makes it look like there'll be "some" texture to the chili, and you certainly hope for some great flavors, regardless - but as soon as you open the can you can see it's just kind of pasty and will have hardly any solids.

And it sure doesn't. There's actually less texture than in Cincinnati chili, which this might make you think of but don't be misled. It's so mild and uninteresting a taste, I say forget it. And it's a real mess in the eating unless you carefully spoon on just enough for the length of the hot dog and bun. So, back to the Hormel's unless and until I find something better than that.

TOD: Corn and peas of course.

I buy Hormel chili with no beans and cook it with some vienna sausages now and then.

Pineapple and fruit cocktail.

I buy diced tomatoes with green pepper, garlic, celery to use in homemade chili.

And of course Progresso Soup and Campbell's Soup.

Campbell's soup has been a source of much eating pleasure this winter!
