So the other night, when Laura, Sergio, and I went to club it up, I had this lotion that I put on because I thought it smelled awesome. Like for reals good. It’s that kind of lotion you put on and instantly feel more attractive because you’re oozing smells of lust. That’s how I would explain it at least. So I squeezed on some of the lotion and instantly asked Sergio to tell me how good I smelled….he said I smelled like a stripper. WINNING. Not really.

Speaking of things that smell….my friend Jake got his stolen car back a couple days ago…I don’t think it smells ok in there. Wanna know why? This is why, please read Jake’s facebook status:

“well…3 weeks later, they found my truck. on top of that they got the guys who did it, along with 5 back packs full of meth, 2 hatchets, 1 sword, a bunch of stolen goods….and gay porn and lube.”

You can imagine what the comments were like to that status. I couldn’t stop laughing. It’s not that funny, it’s actually REALLY scary, but still. It’s kinda funny. He’s getting a new truck. They had to clean needles out of it. That’s even more scary. And not funny. Sorry Jake. I’m a bad friend.

I’ve come to a decision about something. Recently, I tried to back off the coffee and start drinking some tea. I don’t know why. I do dumb sh*t like this. I like caffeine. Like a lot. And I like the taste of coffee. Tea taste like dirty water. Seriously. Don’t write me telling me about tea that tastes good because the only tea that gets me going is tea that is filled with 1/3 cup of honey. So really, sugar water is what gets me going.  I’m easy to shop for.

    I want to like tea….It seems so friggin’ civilized. And so many beautiful choices and accessories.
    But I can only drink it with a heaping teaspoon of sugar (I know…) and half & half.
    And even then I wish I were drinking a latte.

    Score once again! Put it in the crock pot too late to eat it for dinner but it was like chili and even better the second day! Kids ate it up, I took some to the poor young kid at work that I always see eating ramen noodles (my good deed for the day) and I had enough for a few more days.

    I am not really sure why everyone was saying it was spicy though. Maybe because I used fresh jalapenos instead of canned.

      Glad you liked it Kendra!

    I made this with a few modifications, as most of my family members like mild to medium spicy food. I used fresh jalapenos, seeds and insides removed, used green and yellow peppers, instead of green chilies.

    This was so delicious! I am glad a friend shared this with me. Next time she makes it with no modification, I am going to be there eating a bowl full, ads I love the heat.

    Winner winner chicken dinner. Another hit Juli!!! Love your work!






  6. Mike Mc says:

    Excellent. My girlfriend doesn’t do spicy so I replaced the jalepenos with another small can of mild green chiles. She loved it, and so did I. Eating the leftovers for lunch right now!






  7. Jeremy says:

    This was awesome! Thanks for sharing. (For my non-paleo neighbours, I served it over rice.)

    My daughter made this Chicken Enchilada Stew one night this week, and EVERYONE ate it and loved it! I wanted to thank you, AND to tell you I mentioned it and where to find it on my paleo blog. (feedinggersasser.blogspot.com) We had come up with a quick side called SALSA KALE to go with it. You might want to try it! It was so good together. My son, Ger Sasser, is owner of CrossFit Countdown and it’s unbelievable how many healthy calories he needs!
