23 The Lord is well peppered; I shall add salt, 2 He laid out the green peppers; and poured the chili sauce, 3 all into my bowl; that's filled generously with cut steak. 4 In the taste test, my eyes began to water. He smiled at me, as I ate happily. 5 He set the table for my friends who said that they were sorry as He poured the hot sauce, and their eyes began to water. 6 We were full and begged for mercy, no more please, and in the following days; We all ate at the house of our Lord; Forever.

Unsure if contest was regarding one's occupation because I wasn't a cook, but I worked in the hotel industry. I am grateful for your sharing, Paula. Aloha, William
