Curried Garlic Chile - Recipe

My youngest grand daughter, Kate

Around Christmas it’s time to gather up your family and friends for a trip to the mountains.  Stomp down a sled run for the kids and build a roaring bonfire.  Put some chile on the fire, roast hotdogs on a stick and flame some marshmallows.  This is family and friendship at their best, a tradition that will be passed down parent to child so long as there are mountains and snow.
