Pager’s birthday was this weekend, and while he originally planned a night out at the golf dome for some driving practice and snacks, like with a lot of other recent plans, his ACL tear has caused some changes. So golf night out….became poker night in!
I made myself scarce but not before helping him set up an “all in!” chili bar with the fixins. Page put his favorite chili recipe in the crock pot and I laid out every chili mix-in I could think of:
- noodles
- cornbread
- sour cream
- lime wedges
- shredded cheese
- crumbled bacon
- sliced jalapenos
- tomatoes
- onion
- corn chips
- crackers
…..And you know it’s never a complete birthday without cake 🙂 You’re never too old, even at 29, to have some army men in your cupcakes!
Happy birthday to my other half!! Glad you had a fun night – even if it WAS plan B!
Hi,
This is too cute!!! It looks like a fun party and poor Page and his ACL. :o( I love your crockpot-where did you get it? I am in the market for a new one and yours is pretty stylish.
It was so great to meet you Friday night!

Hi Rose! I had so much fun reading around your blog this weekend! It’s in my reader now! 🙂 I do LOVE this crockpot – it’s AllClad from Williams Sonoma — they go on sale around the holiday season!
So fun! I bet the boys loved you for doing that!
I would like to use the chili bar for adult casual entertaining. How cute! Where did you find your chili bar frame?
Hi Connie! The red frame is IKEA and I used scrapbook stickers to spell it out. 🙂
