Thank god.
Touchscreens in a car never made any sense.
Glad to help, man!
I super appreciate the opportunity.

Perpetual Stew-- 48 Hours Later
(lemmy.world)
HELLO VOID! Did you miss me?
This morning, I could tell the first set of vegetables were begging for mercy-- so I put them out of their misery and strained the whole damn thing.
Today's Additions:
- Taijin
- Kosher Salt
- 2 Yellow Onion
- Mushrooms
- 6 Cups Water
- Garlic Powder
- Maldon Sea Salt
- Caldo de Pollo
- Chive Vinegar
- Bay Leaves
- Parsley
- Four Peppercorn Blend
- Chili Beans
Took a day off from actually eating, and spent more time developing and trying to build out flavor.
My 4pm Notes:
"Buttery. It's got a buttery feel to it. But not in a bad way-- like the perfect kind of silky smooth. I was aiming for somewhat of a chile limon kind of feel... with sweet and heat... but I couldn't figure out how to make it happen in a way that would be sustainable. 204F"
Fucked around, Found out.
My 10pm Notes:
"Did a lil tasty taste. It was good. Gonna have a bowl tonight for a late dinner, over elbow noodles. I meant to make crusty bread to dip and sop up the soup, but I forgot. Maybe i'll actually remember to make a loaf before I go to sleep. 196F"
What you see in the photo are the onions, mushrooms, and parsley I added. I have plans tomorrow to add some beef in, with intent of straining the soup and cleaning the pot beforehand.
I wish I had a better update! I'll amend this post if I get hungry and eat more of it a little bit later tonight. :)
I appreciate you all joining me on this journey. <3

First Perpetual Stew: 24 Hour Update
(lemmy.world)
I'm back to scream into the void!
In the last 24 hours, I've added:
- 4 Cups Water
- More Jalapeno
- Banana Peppers
- Red Onion
- Green Pepper
- Garbanzo Beans
- Yellow pear tomatoes
- More mushrooms
- Sauteed Kohlrabi
- Kohlrabi Greens
- Roasted Beef Femurs
- Rosemary
- Parsley
Highlights of the last 24 Hours:
The early taste tests were amazing. The broth was so clear, and I was really impressed with the depth and complexity of flavor I'd created. My first real entry about it was when I sat down with a bowl at 7am today.
"No broth tasting this time, not from the pot. But the bowl I poured... the broth though brown is so CLEAR.. I am flabbergasted. 191F"
I added the extra jalapeño and banana peppers... I swear I thought it was a good idea. It wasn't a bad one, per se-- just a spicy one.
After adding the femur bones and sautéed kohlrabi, it deepened the flavor a bit-- but didn't cut the pepper heat, which is fine. Hence, my 9pm Entry:
"THASSA SPICY MEATBALL! Added green peppers to hopefully cool it some. 205F"
Currently eating my second bowl-- fifteen hours after the first, and 24 hours after beginning the cook. Its got a bit of an oily layer, which makes sense between the bones and the butter I sautéed the kohlrabi in.
I inhaled instead of swallowing at one point, so the heat is making my eyes water. Once I stopped forgetting how to breathe, though-- I realized the heat is more lingering on the tongue and lips than really being WAY too hot... I think I may have conflated temperature heat with Scoville heat.
Tastes damn good tho!
Those millions of Americans have terrible opinions.

We truly have some sophisticated conversations over here. Love you lemmings
I was Reading a post earlier tonight where someone shared an anti Covid view point and dropped the whole big Pharma/government groupthink garbage.
Every comment was telling them they would not be accepted here with those views.
I checked a few hours later and the conspiracists comment was gone, but it did have the largest number of downvotes I’ve come across yet at 150ish.
An echo chamber we need not be, but conspiracy garbage we need not at all.
I just miss when conspiracies were fun and not essentially a threat to one’s livelihood.
Multigenerational living, on a farm. Most everything we eat or use comes from our property, our neighbors, or my husbands family’s property.
I’m very well cognizant this is not an option for a lot of people, and I know how lucky I am to not have to spend money on bills most people have… it’s a big reason why I try to pay it forward in many ways, as often as I can.
That said, I grew up in abject poverty… so I’m playing catch up, even now.
Such is reality.
They say women are too emotional to run the world, yet this motherfucker can't even run a single company without constant foot stomps.
Elon Musk the kinda guy to try to sue Santa for not bringing him enough emeralds.
But muh white Jesus
I don't have any questions but holy shit this is so cool.
Maaan, at this point I think we’d be lucky to get to 2030 without some globally catastrophic weather event.

This shit is exactly why despite having hated growing up in the frozen tundra... I'm now staying. Its not worth giving up at this point in society.
Been a....something... guys. Best of luck to you in the climate wars.
May the odds be ever in your favor.
