I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Pierre Franey’s Turkey Chili from NYT Cooking. I was clearing the fridge/pantry so I subbed beef and turkey, black beans instead of kidney, and crushed tomatoes instead of diced. Perfect for a snow day (I shoveled twice!).
