This is the first chutney I’ve made and it feels like a whole new world to explore! The one I made has green tomatoes, onion, mango, garlic, miscellaneous pepper, cilantro, fenugreek leaf, asafetida, and coriander all simmered in sugar and vinegar. It’s really tasty

It’s finally something like fall in the northern hemisphere so it’s food preservation season: I’ve dried mint and epazote, made several jars of green tomato chutney, and have begun harvesting amaranth, beans, and corn to finish drying.
Agree with Athena5898 that it got too moist, thyme can dry out a smidgeon between waterings. BUT usually mushrooms aren’t bad. Look at those lil guys recycling nutrients! Unless mushrooms are going absolutely crazy I see them as a good sign.

It is interesting: I found myself reading the whole book in part because I was fascinated that at no point did the author lose faith in their position, despite the obvious gaps and whatnot. They clearly believed in their message, at least to a strong degree, and that’s definitely a whole other level of mental gymnastics.
I cannot image reading more than one of these, honestly. I admire your dedication to the cause
As far as I can tell this book is about how Hillary won 2016 but Trump 1 created a shadow government (maybe?) and split the US legally into a Blue half and a Red half with separate citizenship but it’s still one country? And perhaps the lesson is that it’s better to foment hatred because agreeing on anything is…bad? Impossible? It ought to have been a satire about how our government already pits us all against each other to stay in power. Sagan’s Day is the Blue State replacement for X-Mass because it’s too WOKE and EVANGELICAL. I’m confused about what happened to Christmas too. Is there an overlap with the Futurama universe? Perhaps, perhaps. Oh, and it thinks it’s a gay AF book but constantly dunks on all the non-straight characters because of course it does.
So I stopped using hoopla cause a) the fees they charge libraries are batshit insane, but mostly b) I had a 14 hour flight last year, downloaded a bunch of books, then found out that to listen to downloaded books I still needed Internet. Lame. Perhaps that has changed in the last year, though, so I’m sorry if I’m wrong
