BetaAssimilation

Tomorrow is pasta primavera, inspired by another post on this community. Later in the week my boyfriend is making tater tot casserole with chicken bacon cheese sausage homemade by his family. Friday is blackened tilapia with roast potatoes and I’m roasting a chicken Sunday because it was on sale. I’ll probably do broth with the carcass sometime next week. We had originally been planning to enchiladas Sunday, but those got crowded out by the unexpected chicken.

Very cute kitty! Do you have a swatch/writing sample with the ink? I haven’t actually ever seen a wearingeul ink, although I have heard the name.

For me photos hosted on Imgur don’t pop up by themselves but if you click the Imgur.com link at the top of the post it will take you to the image.

Yep! I’m honestly loving the chaos. It’s been really interesting to see all of the organic growth happening at such a visible rate.

You’re absolutely right. I’ve been learning a lot about portion control in the last year or so as I’ve been working on losing some weight and that’s a very effective method.

I don’t expect the duplication to be too much more of an issue here than Reddit. The only big difference is that duplicate forums can have the same name here. I mean, how many meme subreddits were there? At least for me on beehaw, when I search for communities it shows how many subscribers there are. In this period of rapid growth, it’s certainly a bit of a crapshoot and you may need to regularly search communities to see if any take off, but I expect in the next month or so, some communities will become large and their duplicates will pretty clearly die, just like with Reddit.

Mmm. Big fan of the cheese/crackers/salami combo. Except that it somehow always ends up turning into dinner so I can’t do it every day.

For me I just had to be a lot more thoughtful about it. I still use about a quarter cup (~60ml, 37cal) in my morning tea, but instead of having my tea like that 4-5x a day, I have 1-2 cups of tea like that and then have switched to other teas that I don’t put any or as much milk in. So I didn’t cut it out entirely, but I definitely did reduce my usage.

Thanks for the info! I’ll put it in my back pocket for next time I’m looking to buy a pen.

Oh my goodness! I typically find Benu pens a tad too gaudy for my tastes, but that one is really lovely. Those details are lovely. And I think oxblood is a brilliant match.

How is it to write with? I haven’t ever used a pen body quite that shape. Is it comfortable to hold?

Great execution from your girlfriend. How did you like it?

You inspired me to put pasta primavera on this week’s menu. Looks great! And it’s the best feeling to be able to cook with food from the garden. Tastes better too.
