Ag subsidies made them cheaper to both produce and purchase than good food, and they were engineered and focus-grouped to produce cheap one-note flavor hits to our reward centers at the expense of the full richness and variety of good food.

The analogy is pretty good. AI will always be much cheaper than paying an artist, and it’s default trained to make the most generally appealing stuff it can based on its input of human art (though you can tweak its style, etc.)


I’ve only just learned of Luxardo. What’s the difference between that and Maraschino?  My friend said they are similar.


Oh yeah. “So you like sin?  See where that road takes you.” Natural consequences.
But yeah, everyone’s in the same boat.


Maybe this is generally true. “Be fruitful and multiply” would indicate that. But there are too many exceptions for me to say things as definitively as you have.

Paul was single and encouraged others to stay the same (at least in the context of the persecution of the church at the time).

Not everyone wants to, and not everyone who wants to can have children or find a spouse, and this has no bearing on their salvation.

Adoption is glorified by God (and not to say homosexual behavior is spiritually acceptable, but adoption and loving family are possible in homosexual relationships)

This makes it seem less a critical part of our relationship with God, and more a blessing like other blessings.

2.5 points of curiosity:

What generation are -you-?

How do you pronounce atyh?  Like 80?  What does it mean?


Am I mistaken, or do you live in China?
When I went there the first time, I made a friend with celiac disease. It was really hard for her to find safe food because gluten is added to many dishes. It’s nice to hear some restaurants there have become more accommodating.


On the contrary, it was exactly this kind of rank idiocy they both perpetrated and required in order to exist.


I think you’re both right. Some people (like me) will enjoy Jesus, steak, and homeschooling with or without the existence of sound money. But I’ve heard plenty of stories of people actually becoming interested in these things because of the incentives Bitcoin brings.
And we can’t predict all the cultural change true sound money will bring. Sound money just needs to be sound money, and will generally incentivize long-term thinking; though we can’t always know what that will look like exactly, it clearly correlates with certain religious, family, and diet choices right now.

I appreciate a good thin “cookie spatula.”
When I left my parents’ house, I ordered one of my own.  It works, but is just a little thicker and less flexible. Always gonna be nostalgic for the original…


I kinda just do it “to taste” or “make it look like buffalo sauce” but roughly equal parts melted butter and hot sauce. I recommend Crystal hot sauce.
Sometimes I add a little garlic powder, or you can do like nostr:npub13q8evu294dnt20vacfuagj5hy2agwhfr93el8h68qlg708zrxm8qnd6vpv and add sautéed garlic.
I also used to start things off with a light roux to help the butter and sauce stay blended longer and stick better to the wings, but it’s not necessary if you are able to toss wings in sauce quickly.


Jesus was someone tax collectors and sinners wanted to be around and follow. Are sinners (or those whose sins you’re most likely to notice) comfortable enough around you for you to love them?  Are you living an example they can even see?

Crystal is pretty cheap! It’s just not at every store. Ones I know carry it, at least in NC / VA:  Harris Teeter, Publix, Wegmans. It comes from Louisiana; maybe it’s a southern thing?

Anyway, it’s good on everything hot sauce is good on, and in particular makes (in combination with butter) the BEST homemade buffalo sauce for wings.

Pourover all the way! In fact, I just made some ☕


Boeing sells planes with a very specific number of escape doors, at very specific intervals. They wont change this.
The major airlines, when they receive the planes, will remove one or more of the escape doors, and cover them, so they can install a few more seats, and make a couple hundred dollars more on each flight.
One of these after market door assemblies is what gave way recently on an Alaska Airlines flight. It has nothing to do with Boeing. This is entirely a big airline after-market thing.
The fact that major airlines are now coming out with stories about "finding loose bolts on Boeing planes" means the major airlines are staging a fake story in order to throw Boeing under the bus, and hide the fact that what caused the breach is a regular practice by all major airlines. If this story became widely known, the major airlines would be pressured to not use these panels, and fly the planes as they come from the factory, thus losing a couple hundred dollars per flight, and likely having to remove the panels and re-install the factory escape doors.

Greed incentives.

Dont trust, verify.


Experiment in #baking today:  turning melted ice cream into cake!

Especially strange considering it’s made from ice cream, this cake is not very sweet. Fixed the problem with an “icing” of sweetened sour cream (which is the best cheesecake topping, by the way) and a sprinkling of peach Bellini sugar from the Spice and Tea Exchange in Charleston 🍑

NOW it’s good!  There’s an added benefit of covering up the oddly pale top.

It’s hard to go wrong with extra pecans, and I’m glad I added some to the blend of butter pecan and maple walnut ice creams from Amos Miller!  Next time I make a melted ice cream cake, I’ll probably add a little sugar and maybe use less flour as well. This one was based on this recipe (though because I don’t have baking powder, I used 1/2 tsp baking soda instead)

Enjoyed with a little Cinnamon Plum black tea from Republic of Tea.

Where do these microplastics come from?
One source is laundering clothes made from artificial materials.
Washing clothes beats them up, and small pieces of whatever fiber they’re made of float off and are whisked away to wherever your wastewater goes. Will your clothes biodegrade, or are they made of forever chemicals?

Check your labels, buy natural fibers.  Even if you don’t see a comfort improvement, you might still be concerned about what’s happening to our water supply.

Totally demolished 🌶


It’s been over two months since my child was born, and I’ve happily returned to being able to wear pants when I want 😊

This means it’s long past time to follow up on what I found to fill my need for a better thigh holster to wear with skirts and dresses.

I never found one, per se. But wearing these cotton bike shorts under dresses and skirts was a game changer:

Nirlon Biker Shorts with Pockets
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PG47QXD

They’re 92% cotton, 8% elastane, which I find comfortable and acceptable enough as a natural fiber maxi.  Being skintight biker shorts, they fill the niche of underskirt shorts for comfort even without the pockets, which are just large enough to carry a snub-nosed Smith and Wesson J-frame in a pocket holster — meaning most other reasonable concealment guns in pocket holsters will fit with no problem.

This puts the gun on the outside of the thigh, which I was concerned about for no reason. There was no printing, though it might be a concern for clothing that is tight on the thigh. Additionally, since it holds it slightly higher on the thigh than most thigh holsters, which seem to put the gun just above the knee, it feels much safer to wear midi-length dresses, which is great because good floor-length dresses are basically impossible to find unless you are cool with polyester and rayon (again, like my ideal dress, I am a cotton maxi 😉)

Holding just the weight of the gun in one pocket, these stayed up very well, though as pregnancy belly grew even more, the waistband needed a little rolling down. Putting loaded speed strips in the other pocket as well seemed a great idea, but proved a little too much weight for the shorts. The other pocket was a handy place to store phone and ID when wearing dresses that don’t have pockets, though, so this is a pro tip even for those of you who don’t wish to carry a gun.

I never tried running in these while carrying, but it held everything securely through energetic walking and 90+ degree angles of sitting.

All in all, highly recommend, 10/10 — this one item of clothing helped me stay able to protect myself during a particularly vulnerable time, and has revolutionized my potential wardrobe. I only wish it came in more colors suitable to underskirt shorts, like flesh tones and white. Hope this review helps a bunch of ladies 💜

You can turn off suggested music automatically playing on Spotify, and I do. I also like following friends on there and have picked up interesting music leads from their playlists and realtime listening.  None of this prohibits me from talking to them about music or researching on my own in other ways.

Most of my life, I’ve had zero friends who shared my music taste, so asking them for advice would have made my listening much more mainstream. Before I had Spotify, I did most of my music research through YouTube, which is arguably much more algorithmic. But instead of directing me to popular channels, I used it to find even weirder, more niche stuff than I already listened to 😂

These things are just tools. It’s our job to have awareness and use the tool rather than let it use us.

Phonology is really the study of what I was talking about — the systems languages have for speech sounds, including rules for when one sound changes to another contextually.
For example, why is the s in “dogs” pronounced like z while in “cats” it’s like s?  English phonological rules.

Millennial here admitting I usually pronounce these words this way 😅

More accurately, the missing ts in button and president are transformed into glottal stops, while directions is produced basically as you’ve written.
As a linguistics major, though, gonna say this almost certainly doesn’t have to do with laziness; it’s just phonology.

Curious now… do you really pronounce the t in directions? I’m not sure I’ve even heard this outside of theater tbh

There is a culture of "acceptance" that is weirdly unhealthy.

Accepting where you are, & identifying with your flaws, are two very different things. Accepting where you are is important & generally necessary for growth & progress. Identifying with your flaws is a very big obstacle to progress.

And of course, celebrating flaws is a whole different sort of evil.

And happy eighth day of Christmas…

“Bountiful evening, bountiful evening, a New Year's carol;
A little swallow flew into the household
and started to twitter,
to summon the master:
‘Come out, come out, O master,
look at the sheep pen,
there the ewes have given birth
and the lambkins have been born
Your goods are great,
you will have quite a sum of money money is chaff from all the grain
You have a dark-eyebrowed beautiful wife’”

I think this is just a wording issue, but violence that isn’t justice is never a necessity. Still tragic, but whether it’s just or not must always be the deciding factor.
To me, the idea that unjust violence can still be necessary is what more closely resembles the tyrannical worldview.

“If people value a library of this kind, why wouldn’t it also last forever?” was responding to Zach who was saying that a blockchain for the specific purpose of having an incorruptible library, separate from Bitcoin, was a doomed idea.

I get why Bitcoin will last forever. I just don’t get why an incorruptible library wouldn’t also last forever as its own blockchain separate from Bitcoin, since it’s also a good and valuable idea.

Definitionally, money is the most salable good, so there can only be one. Reality might approach that imperfectly and have a few competing options for some reason.
I think it’s less how many currencies there are that needs justification, and more the reason there is either one or more than one. If it’s something like regional or cultural norms, okay. But if it’s because some top-down entity said so (e.g., fiat legal tender (one) or bimetallism (plural)) — that’s what I think needs to be (and can’t be) justified.

Folks have been building bunkers for a very long time. It’s true the world is in a precarious position (thank you, my idiot government fighting with Russia when it isn’t their business) but it’s also true that most of these people with bunkers have never needed to use theirs. I hope you won’t lose heart for life or do anything desperate, but will keep living as cheerfully as we see you do, grow your library and find a great husband 💜

Yeah, came here to say that picture was absolutely ridiculous 😂 it’s also maybe a stretch to call it another island when it’s really more of a Beringia situation.

I’m inclined to respect extrapolations from real archaeological evidence allowing the population range they’re claiming. But this article using that picture would definitely have the real scientists involved tearing their hair out…

I’m not only a hot food maxi, but a hot food snob. Hot foods not only need to be hot again, but reheated in the ideal fashion. For example, anything supposed to be crispy (like skin-on chicken) goes in the oven or toaster oven, never the microwave.

Would I also be a grocery shopping-decision maker?  I’d need to know what’s in your fridge and pantry. 🙋🏻♀


Thank you!


More sculpting at the studio!
Today I made a custom bead tree for firing beads and pendants. Because glazed surfaces can’t touch kiln surfaces or it’ll be a huge mess, beads need to be glaze fired on special kiln-safe metal rods resting on “trees” made of a certain kind of clay (which I happen to have). Usually these structures are bland and utilitarian, but they had sold out at the store, so I decided to make my own… now I will have a pair of kiln dragons 🐲🐲 and I’ll make art with art!

These tiny mushroom pendants will go on this structure eventually. I was drying this hummingbird ornament upside down next to them and I now realize it looks like it’s sprawled out on some kind of mushroom trip 😂
A bluebird and wren ornament are ready to fire, but unfortunately not in time to be glazed by Christmas.

If you come up with a good way to put it, I’m interested to know.


I’d put this on the website if it were my restaurant


Sorry, but I need your help. 🙏🫂

I had put aside many photographs that served as inspiration for me to make new paintings, but looking at them now I don't like them as much as before.

If you have photos of landscapes to offer me in good resolution, which you think deserve to be made into a painting, I will be happy to evaluate them and the ones I choose for paintings will be paid 5% of the value of the painting, should they be sold.

For example on the last painting I put up for sale at 630000 sats, if it was made from one of your photos, you would get a reward of 31500 sats, in case of sale.

Thank you very much for your support, I look forward to your photos! 😍

Fascinating stuff.
I’ve seen field guides to eggs, but has anyone made a field guide to baby bird mouths? These are the most ornate I’ve seen, but many others are still brightly colored (also for encouraging parents to feed them, I’m pretty sure) and it would be interesting to compare them.
Now I want to know how chicks of nocturnal species look compared to those of diurnal ones.

Congratulations! 🩷


I’ve seen a fair amount of all of that, especially when I first started using Nostr back in July. Any time opening Universe you can see it’s still there, and outside of Universe I still run into some by surprise, mostly when people I follow respond to it.


The universe is infinite, we can always produce more of something, the question is, at what cost? Resources are only finite in a practical sense because our lives or the time available for us to access or to produce certain things is finite.

Socialists & communists on the other hand want society to function by stealing what has already been produced. It involves a total denial of any resource constraints at all.

Ohhhhh i would also LOVE anything that keeps squirrels away 😂


My space is limited but I would be interested in edible things I could grow in containers in USDA zones 6-7 (living in 7, probably moving to 6 or 7)
Strange is good 😁
Any kind of thing that is considered hot weather loving (like okra or peppers) but you’re able to grow well (or is really early) probably has cool genes I’d be happy messing with.
Flowers that fit in containers would be cool. Got any tiny dahlias maybe, or nasturtiums?
They’re not particularly small 😅 but I am also extra interested in growing runner beans / gigante beans this year, particularly any variety that also makes good green beans / snap beans.


I think search bar would be intuitive.

Discovered this wonderful album of Basque Christmas music yesterday. It’s all really good…
Apparently this song got translated to English and is known as Gabriel’s Message, but I had never heard of it until yesterday, either.

“Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head,
‘To me be as it pleaseth God,’ she said,
‘my soul shall laud and magnify His holy Name,’
Most highly favoured lady, Gloria, Gloria!”

Some stuff I got up to at the #pottery studio this week — a return to sculpture, my passion!  Now that I’m back to sculpting, I feel a need to spend more consistent time on it.

I got some kiln-level heat-resistant wires as early Christmas presents - thick ones for hanging beads to be fired, and thin ones for making pendant and ornament hangers. So coming soon are bluebird and wren Christmas ornaments and some little mushroom pendants (Old Man of the Woods and Amanita).

Awesome!!  Recipe / procedure?


More adventures in #baking!

Unlike cakes which I always make from scratch, with a few exceptions, I usually bake cookies from store-bought dough that I mix stuff into.

Cookies from storebought dough are only soft right after baking and quickly become crunchy. Usually I’m fine with that, but for this marzipan-stuffed cookie idea I had, I wanted the cookies to remain soft.  Apparently, one technique for soft sugar cookies is making them with cream cheese, so I added some to this dough before stuffing them with marzipan and baking.

I couldn’t decide whether to have them with iced coffee or with bison grass tea (Kusmi Zoubrovka), so I had both!  They were delicious warm; I’ll have to see tomorrow whether adding cream cheese worked to make them stay soft.

**Betelgeuse Eclipsed**

https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2312/OrionBetelgeuse_occultation.jpg

Image Credit & Copyright: Sebastian Voltmer

Asteroid 319 Leona cast a shadow across planet Earth on December 12, as it passed in front of bright star Betelgeuse. But to see everyone's favorite red giant star fade this time, you had to stand near the center of the narrow shadow path starting in central Mexico and extending eastward across southern Florida, the Atlantic Ocean, southern Europe, and Eurasia. The geocentric celestial event is captured in these two panels taken at Almodovar del Rio, Spain from before (left) and during the asteroid-star occultation. In both panels Betelgeuse is seen above and left, at the shoulder of the familiar constellation Orion. Its brightness diminishes noticeably during the exceedingly rare occultation when, for several seconds, the giant star was briefly eclipsed by a roughly 60 kilometer diameter main-belt asteroid.

Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His Gospel is Peace
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother
And in His name, all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His Holy name
Christ is the Lord; O praise His name forever!
His power and glory evermore proclaim

Today was the DC Bitdevs holiday party!  I baked a special orange cake (naturally it would be orange) decorated with cocoa powder and it was a hit!

Orange and chocolate are one of my favorite flavor combinations, especially for the holidays, and the visual effect was really fun. I will definitely be doing this again with other patterns.

With the other half of the batter (which used the zest of seven oranges in total), I made cranberry orange muffins… but those are just for me and my father in law 😁

Sophia was very chill through her first Bitcoin-related meetup and made lots of adoring new friends. I just love it when she sleeps with her arms up like this 🥰

Those outside of Australia may not ever have heard of the Wieambilla Shootings in 2022. Called 'Domestic Terrorism' by the powers that be, there are still many questions surrounding the incident.

Why I bring this up is the arrest, in Arizona US, of an American man in connection with the event here in Australia.
His crime? Commenting on the youtube videos of the people involved and sending them religiously themed messages.

That's where we are at now, you face arrest and detention for youtube comments, text messages, communication with anyone whom the government doesn't like, even if in another country and before they committed any crime.

We all face this prospect. I'm glad that we'll all have so much talk about when we all get disappeared to some gulag somewhere.

So I had time to bake the cookies I call Goldfinches for the church event last night, but not enough time to take pictures of the process 😂 and they were popular enough that I didn’t come home with any.

They’re the lumpy little pecan and potato chip shortbreads visible at the center left of the first photo and the bottom right of the second one, which shows what I thought were the best cookies after what I tried in the first round.
The pink glittery sugar cookie was the kind that’s so soft, it’s creamy inside. Red and white sprinkles was some kind of soft cinnamon cookie. The dark one with powdered sugar was a really good chocolate cookie I had expected to be gingerbread.
Too bad no one put their names on stuff 😂 I’ll be asking around who made what…

I have a similar story. I went to see the Yunmen dance troupe and talked to my professors about it. But instead of Yunmen 云门 “cloud gate” I said the very similar sounding yinmen 阴门 which refers to a part of female anatomy 🫠


There’s a breeder and trainer on Nostr that works with Malinois and German Shepherds if you’re interested. Their posts are pretty interesting.

Sophia is a month old now!

I love how she’s keeping her eyes open more while being calm. Last night she looked interested in the harp, so nostr:npub1jrx2fk666k5nt8vgak9xwyxlgcwh8fl9rvpwvvcpdthuqkcnptrqdfhtaq held and danced with her while I played. She watched and seemed interested the whole time!

Beautiful. Where will this be shown?


I once made a hook out of a broken paintbrush 💪


That is a nice looking first chain!


Incredible work!!


Yes!  Join our ranks of Nostr crocheters!
Ask me anything 🧶
I’ll try to post a pic of how I hold yarn later.


This whole video was a fun romp through some Florida wilderness 😁 the fungus mentioned below was absolutely fascinating, but so were many other finds. I was excited to learn that Florida species of Conradina also smell like rosemary just like Cumberland rosemary does (C. verticillata). I’ve been a huge fan of that plant since finding it in my college’s arboretum years ago.

Not compared to Tuesday 😅 but it will be ok.  Thanks for asking 💜


If something in you tells you a pain is serious, or even suspicious, don’t ignore it. Get yourself checked out. The best case scenario is that you’re wrong. The next best is that you’ve just caught a problem before it becomes much more serious.

Wanted to try some shade grown coffee!  The bag says hazelnut but I think the strongest flavor note is almond. That would be nice for wintertime with some kind of marzipan cookie… https://image.nostr.build/039a6c0e0699e46185ab4a029b184f28c5681a2037e839f1d9559de9289e6e08.jpg https://image.nostr.build/80f1a3c79279dee6d31072022680859de2b08e83aab8f93d3e9da29b0d748422.jpg


I’d like to thank nostr:npub17ranr5vpp20etheaz78u6e72pvyc0xk3r6rgnetfvtxc88acat2q4nhenz for indirectly putting me on to a powerful tool:

Songlink / https://odesli.co/
Upload a link to a song from (anywhere? Or just the supported platforms? Haven’t tested) and it’ll make it shareable on a bunch of different platforms like Spotify, YouTube, Tidal, and more.

Pretty cool!


Glad to see this show grow!

I did a Halloween music countdown and am about to do an Advent and 12 days of Christmas thing. I also occasionally post music links at random.
nostr:npub17ranr5vpp20etheaz78u6e72pvyc0xk3r6rgnetfvtxc88acat2q4nhenz posts lots of songs as well.


Ooh please recc your favorite spooky story podcasts!


I actually got a video message from Brittney Slayes in mine 🤘

Something similar exists at fallingfruit.org, but it’s urban-focused and uses google maps.


Interested in contributing!  I don’t know a map for you, though.


In seriousness:  never in my life have I put ketchup on rice 😂 but white rice becomes magically delicious when you put salt, rice vinegar, and butter on it.

What interview?  Were you on a podcast or a nest?


Sophia’s first day at the studio!

Doing a glaze test tile for a commission right now. Then I was thinking of getting my hands dirty with a few different projects. Soap dispensers?  Rice grain ware?  Something Nostr inspired?  TBD!  Got lots planned now that I’m back.

My actual bestie is already here nostr:npub1jrx2fk666k5nt8vgak9xwyxlgcwh8fl9rvpwvvcpdthuqkcnptrqdfhtaq 🥰 but my non-spouse bestie is a stubborn Luddite sort… and that’s something coming from me 😂
She just doesn’t have the bandwidth for more apps, as she puts it. In her case I don’t think she’d try Nostr even if it were extremely user friendly and straightforward to start using.
I also think she’s a bit blackpilled on social media interactions in general.   She’s still on Facebook, but I think mostly for the groups. Having something more topical group-focused or group-enabled on Nostr, like Reddit or even Facebook, would be a draw for many people I think (I would also use it heavily)


…your two cents worth?  😂


Men don’t either


Goals 💯 love your one room cabin idea!

#Progressives of Nostr, I have an honest, non-trolling question.

I don’t hate Trans people; I don’t celebrate their suffering or support when their rights are trampled*; I’m not afraid of them, either. I simply don’t believe them when they say they are the gender they claim.

Why is my point of view called “Transphobic?”

*by “rights trampled” I mean things like jail, theft, and violence, not simply failing to accommodate, like adjusting use of pronouns or access to specific bathrooms on private property.

That’s blossom end rot. The plant is calcium deficient, either because there isn’t enough in the soil or because the pH is wrong and it can’t absorb it.

What does the largest moon in the Solar System look like?  Jupiter's moon Ganymede, larger than even Mercury and Pluto, has an icy surface speckled with bright young craters overlying a mixture of older, darker, more cratered terrain laced with grooves and ridges.  The cause of the grooved terrain remains a topic of research, with a leading hypothesis relating it to shifting ice plates.  Ganymede is thought to have an ocean layer that contains more water than Earth -- and might contain life.  Like Earth's Moon, Ganymede keeps the same face towards its central planet, in this case Jupiter.  The featured image was captured in 2021 by NASA's robotic Juno spacecraft when it passed by the immense moon.  The close pass reduced Juno's orbital period around Jupiter from 53 days to 43 days.  Juno continues to study the giant planet's high gravity, unusual magnetic field, and complex cloud structures.    Follow Podcasts about APOD's Images: on YouTube

Cool idea. Could sort npubs based on how frequently they use relevant hashtags?


don’t feel ashamed to repost your own notes y’all 💜

people from the opposite timezones would love you for doing that at different times


Nice guide ❄


Fascinating; I’ll be looking to see if it’s also on Gutenberg.org


I stopped caring so much about my real name and image being “out there” when I realized I was probably already on a bunch of lists. But this is still good information to keep in mind. nostr:note15h3l225n2n3k4ykpqsv2a9w4wdng5phnndmxwftv2g2y9ykxruxqa7z9q3

Taking apart this giant cotton hat I made for nostr:npub1jrx2fk666k5nt8vgak9xwyxlgcwh8fl9rvpwvvcpdthuqkcnptrqdfhtaq  and will reform it into a small carseat blanket for our daughter instead!

The hat I’m frogging didn’t keep the wind out, so I made a wool hat he wears instead, and one to semi-match for me.

The yarn is one I used in a shawl I made and wear frequently, so we’ll have some mother-daughter matching 😊 especially if I can scrounge up remnants of the red and green yarns as well…

Every Thanksgiving, I use leftover turkey to make one of my most widely loved dishes (and the only casserole I ever make) — turkey tetrazzini!

It’s creamy, cheesy, tarragony goodness bursting with turkey, mushrooms, celery, onion, wild rice, white wine, and held together with angel hair pasta, with a crispy crust of onion straws, wild rice, and even more Swiss cheese (this year I used Gruyère and I may never go back)

It’s one of nostr:npub1jrx2fk666k5nt8vgak9xwyxlgcwh8fl9rvpwvvcpdthuqkcnptrqdfhtaq ‘s all time favorite meals, so I made him a keto version without wild rice and with hearts of palm noodles instead of pasta. Sorry I don’t have a pic of the finished keto version 😅 only the palm noodles in the baking pan ready to be mixed.

One of the best things about this meal is that it makes enough food to last several days!  I’m so looking forward to the leftovers. Sometimes I even freeze a meal’s worth for some easy comfort food in the further future.

Why not both? You could keep the development section as a page.


I’d still eat that!  Kale with a side of baby broccoli 💜


I guess then she can graduate to one of those fluffy bear suits 😂

I think Sophia’s getting longer… but the tiny sweater my friend knitted for her is still big on her!  I’m glad it seems she will be able to wear it through the winter.
