@Wickedchicken6 said she pours a healthy dose of vinegar in hers. It sounded totally bizarre, but I tried it in my last batch... Best dang chili I ever made!!!

I'm really happy to hear you liked it! I can't seem to get back on here.

I was experimenting with adding more vinegar in my soups. Lol...it is possible to overdo the vinegar so I will warn about that. I made a soup with too much vinegar and I've got to make another soup and blend them to dilute the vinegar. (and apparently freezing soup only enhances the vinegar flavor.)

I read this article today and it made me so angry! Why doesn't the government encourage people to learn to grow their own food? Wouldn't that help resolve some of the problems with food insecurity?

That's a sticky issue for some IM, so I don't want to say more than, the government used to encourage people to grow their own food. Not sure what happened to that idea. (And yes, I realize not everyone has the physical ability or the ground to grow their own.)

Ironically, our last president made farming and gardening illegal in a lot of areas.
Was it Clinton that didn’t know what a cattle guard was? Some president wanted to cut back on them.

It's a hair pulling situation

I know it's a sticky issue @N F C
It is for me too. I've seen people abuse it, I've seen people who desperately need it through no fault of their own. It's just a terrible, frustrating situation all around.

Got up this morning and put on my shoes.
Headed outside which was long over due.

Fed my piggies that were making loud sounds,
Then it went silent as the feed hit the ground.

The Goats were happy to see me come around.
As I brought the fresh hay, they tried to knock me down.

So I wiped my jeans of the dirt, mud and the poo.
But there was one more thing I forgot to do!

Across the distance I heard such a noise!
All the chickens were squawking, the girls & the boys!

The Birds were still locked in their houses that had closed doors, the first thing on my list, when I start my chores.

But today I forgot and fell out of routine.
And a few of the birds looked at me kinda mean.

As they bolted thru the doorways and flapped their wings,
Some of the roosters started to sing.

They sung the song that I know so well.
"GIVE US SOME FOOD BECAUSE WE ARE HUNGRY AS

!​

Agreed!
