Lee the Fabulous Chili Maker

Lee considered himself the most famous chili maker in the west Added tobacco, Heinz 57, cinnamon, gave it a big taste test We had heard about his concoctions, and could not wait. The first bite was terrible, second bitter, the third one a bad fate. What about this stew had given him a glowing review? We could not keep our faces straight; this stuff was a big boo-hoo. Lee waited expectantly, but none of us play poker. His terrific chili had been replaced by his wife’s, she was a horrible joker. When we got the straight stuff, it was worth the wait. Lee was a fabulous chili maker; his concoction was quite great. Why did you do that? We asked her, for the why we could not guess. I was a bit jealous, said his evil wife, Miss Jess.
