I think it's a win!

This week, Alan competed in our church chili cook-off.

Tuesday night, he (along with his sous chefs) made a big batch of chili.

even Mal gets in on the action!

adding the special ingredients

We waited patiently for the results after dinner was done.
Out of 21 entries his batch won this....

2nd Place!!!
(please excuse the messy crock pot,
this was after the chili dinner when we
got home)

He's so proud!
