Wayzata Chili Open Feb 7... and more!

From The Wayzata Chamber (In all caps, no less!):
"ENJOY FOOD, FUN AND FROZEN FESTIVITIES! HUNDREDS OF GOLFERS WILL GATHER ON SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7 FOR TWO 9-HOLE GOLF COURSES, THE 19TH HOLE CHILI COOKOFF AND LIVE MUSIC ALL ON FROZEN LAKE MINNETONKA!"

This is a fine chili made from Chef Dave's secret recipe - from Hawaii no less. I may encourage Dave to enter this chili, which violates all my dearly held chili principles - suchs as the use of kidney beans, fresh tomatoes and ground beef.
Note:
It was 1850 and Texas was an independent country. Records of a Texas millionaire and chili lover (Everette DeGolyer) claim chili recipies were found from this time period. The Lone Star State claims Chili as an authentic Texas dish for cowboys and gold seekers headed for the gold fields of California. Some say "no tomaotes", some say "no beans" but all agree that chili has peppers.

Here is our "Texas on the tundra"... the Wayzata Chilly Open - and of course there is also golf. You will notice the novice Chilly Open golfers, they'll have the plaid pants and use white golf balls. I plan on a warm day and a photo bonanza.
