So we are day 3 of being snowed in. I have thoroughly enjoyed it, I have been able to make bread, beans, and chili. Three things I regret not getting: milk, butter, and eggs. I know pretty sad!!! But I was thinking of bare necessities, water and canned soups, the whole time thinking we would lose power and wouldn't be able to cook. Last night was negative 10 degrees, I am soooo thankful we still have power!!!
Yesterday I started a big pot of beans and before supper I turned that into a pot of chili. I will share my new concoction below. :)

1/4 tsp. basil
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
