Why am I holding a little golden trophy?
There was recently a chili cook-off at my office. The day before the cook-off deadline, the organizers encouraged entries for vegetarian chili because there was only one entry. Now, normally the idea of me entering a cooking contest would be utterly ridiculous. I can barely boil water. But I can make one thing worth eating, and it happens to be vegetarian chili... so I decided to participate. I was absolutely gobsmacked when I won the trophy for Best Vegetarian Chili.
So here you have essentially the worst cook on the planet holding her cooking contest trophy. Too weird.
Love the costume!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteWhat a funny coincedence and costume! You could add a little pet rat and go as the cook of Ratatouille next year! ^^
ReplyDeleteOoh, that's a good idea! :D
DeleteWhat a cool costume!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteHA! That's awesome! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteYour costume looks tredmeous. Its great to know that you won the contest for vegetarian chilli. Also, I'm sure you have better culinary skills, then you give yourself credit. The Last time I cooked, I gave myself food poisoning. Congratulations on your trophy and hope everything improves for you .
ReplyDeleteThanks very much! Luckily, I haven't given myself food poisoning, but I have destroyed a few pots and pans. And made eggs explode.
DeleteVery creative!
ReplyDeleteCare to share your recipe with us?
Sure. It's super easy... more assembling than cooking. ;)

Good job winning the chili contest! I can't even make chili, so you're one step ahead of me :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Chili is the only thing I can make, so it will be just the one step. ;)
DeleteI too was a chef for Halloween- but I was Alfredo Linguini from Ratatouille, and I can't make chili.
ReplyDeleteGood one. :) I think I might have to watch that movie again now.
DeleteWell done!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the costume, and the trophy is the perfect touch... you should use it as part of the costume if you wear it again! ;-)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! :)
DeleteLovely coincidence! There you see the lousy chef isn't as lousy afterall. I'm sure you would be a great chef if you tried other dishes. The costume is brilliant :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteLOL! Will wonders never cease? Congratulations and great costume! Your office sounds pretty fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks! The office does have a comfortable vibe. :)
