On Lyndsie's personal blog, she has started a "Monday's Meals" where we can link up meals every Monday. I think this is a great idea! I don't have a family to cook for yet but I cook alot for Ty and I! And I always am looking for new meals! So, join her link up and post a recipe every Monday!

Here is my recipe for today:

My mom's Chili

1 small onion, grated

2 cloves minced garlic (1/4 teaspoon dried minced garlic)

Update on Ben - If you prayed for Ben, THANK YOU!!! He is out of the ICU and in a Rehab room now. He is talking a little (from what I hear) but not much. He is responding well and all of this is such an answer to prayers! Please keep praying for a quick recovery and NO brain damage!!!!!!
