One and a Half Alarm Chili

I enjoy cooking every once in a while, and have really grown to enjoy making chili. I made a pretty good batch two weeks ago, but it wasn't quite spicy enough. So I made some more this afternoon and decided to put two jalapeƱo peppers in with my normal mix of ingredients to spice things up a bit. As it turns out, two jalapeƱos is more than enough, and may even be too much for my liking, especially since I added the entire pepper (including the seeds, which are apparently what makes them so hot).

My only concern with this whole situation is that I now have at least a gallon of chili, and Nicole is only interested in eating a little bit since it's so hot. So needless to say, my system will have some issues to deal with over the next week or so.
