The first modern attempt at chili turned out on the soupy side, but still very edible, and in fact it made up my one meal a day yesterday. I fasted 36 hours before it and today I’ll go 20ish at a minimum.
The big round roast, seared on the stovetop and then baked in the same cast-iron pan, was also still edible, but wildly overcooked–halfway to jerky.

Do you wonder that I find it impossible to take Us, collectively, seriously any more?
