I agree. Vote however you choose or no griping.

And even if you do vote, no griping here given this is a politics and religion free zone.

Hello folks I hope all is well or gets better for you. Micro chick, do you put pasta in your chili? and is it macaroni or spaghetti if you do? here in the southern half of Indiana chili isn't chili without macaroni in it. If someone uses spaghetti instead it's horrible, scandalious and if no pasts is used it's not fit to eat (at least in many people's eye around here)!

That is what I grew up with - chili with macaroni in it. Definitely not chili mac, ours with thin enough that you had to spoon it up to eat it. Since getting married, I have adjusted the original family recipe to something fairly different, but not anything like a Texas Chili. Mom used a BIG can of V8 juice, I use a 16 oz. can. Mom used 1 can of beans, I use 3. Mom used grocery store chili powder, I use chili powder plus chipolte and a touch of cocoa powder. My chili recipe is thick enough to sit on a cracker and eat it.
DH makes a Texas style chili - verified by a real live Texan. I have to take a serving out of the pot for me about 3/4 of the way through the process of cooking it - before he puts in the hot chili's to be exact. I can eat it freshly made, but once is sits overnight it gets pretty intense on heat.

Is it something in particular you think triggered it?

Hope the rest of your day goes better!

Day is going good... Triggers are mold... Doesnt help that its dry this time a year. 90 degrees and 50 percent humidity... right now.

I used to get them every year spring and fall... Big weather changes from one state to another.

I never thought about your humidity being high (to me, 50% seems high). I always pictured your desert-like area to be dry like mine.

It does get bad here in the Fall! Harvesting and then so dusty winds will trigger asthma

Yep Brings in all sorts of things to breathe in.... Dust I can deal with... but other stuff like molds I cant....

Agriculture Dust is here in the Valley in the Fall when the fields are disked. It has "stuff" in it--left over fertilizer, week killer and other residue. It a lot of ways it is toxic.

Deb, I've been meaning to ask you...what is that in your avatar? Looks kind of like the Loch Ness Monster but that doesn't seem right? (Although Nessy is kind of cool looking from the photos I've seen )

Yep it gets up to 80 percent here close to the coast... 18 miles. At home it will be drier around 30 percent. There are peaks and valleys in that...

El nino has been playing havoc with all of the normals as well.
