When I grow up...

 I want a sweet big kitty that loves a sweet little girl just like Banjo and Adelaide.

We had Francois, a recent hire in Clark Kent's department, over for dinner last night.  I was confident in the beer bread and chili that I made a couple of weeks ago, so I made them again.  For dessert, I tried the Joy of Baking recipe for vanilla cupcakes.  They turned out fantastic!  I didn't have enough butter to make a buttercream frosting, so I iced them with a simple cream cheese frosting and they were pretty tasty.  I love how the recipe only yielded 12 cupcakes.  Francois informed us that cupcakes do not exist in France.  He's never really seen them before!  When we invited him for dinner on Tuesday, I prefaced the invitation with, "Do you like to eat chili?"  A conversation ensued about chili peppers.  I then said, "No, chili...soup.  You eat it with a spoon.  It is red and has beans in it.  It's called chili."  He thought for a moment and then said, "Ahhhhhh, chili con carne?"  Yes, that was it!
