06/07 - Taco Thursday!

From a chick who crochets, that is incredibly awesome and sweet.

So, a little related. When I was pregnant with my daughter I started crocheting a blanket. I didn't get it finished before she was born. Then she died as an infant and I put it away. After my son was born I decided to finally finish it so he could use it, and I did. Can't say it was his favorite one, as I have like seven crocheted baby blankets, but it was larger than most and it was used as a floor blanket a lot. It's now put away for him to hand down to his kids and when he's a dad I'll tell him I started it for his sister. He will really love that because, though he never knew her, he has a warm spot in his heart for her (my son is currently 14).

That is an awesome way to build something beautiful from heartache.

Hey guys I'm a novice in the kitchen and had a question... So I plan on making this chili: https://www.budgetbytes.com/snap-challenge-one-pot-chili-pasta/

do you think it'd be okay to use ground turkey instead of ground beef?

Yes but the texture won't be quite the same. It would be great with ground pork though!

Alright, since I was responsible for negativity on the thread this morning let me flip it a bit, bear with me:

A few years ago when my wife and I found out we were going to have a baby I started making a blanket for the baby. (yes, I'm a dude who crochets.)

A few weeks later my wife had a miscarriage. It was devastating. I put the blanket away. When she was at work I eventually pulled it out and started working on it again. Months went by and eventually we found out that we were going to have a baby again. I kept quietly making this blanket. I never stopped believing that eventually there would be a baby to give it to. For three years I have worked on it a bit here and there so my wife wouldn't see it and have bad memories.

Last night my wife told me that Archimedes outgrew his baby blanket.

I went to the closet and pulled out the finished blanket I made and held it out to him. He grabbed it and snuggled it and hasn't let go since.

My wife and I both nearly lost it as he toddled up the stairs dragging this blanket to bed.

_______
So I hope that makes up for the negativity I brought to the forum this morning.

This is beautiful.

Prolific is popping today so make sure to check in on your account. If you have been invited to the new beta interface but are hesitant I have been using it for a couple weeks and IMO it is a definite upgrade.

do you think it'd be okay to use ground turkey instead of ground beef?

yes, just might need to change the seasonings a bit

I regularly make it with pre-cooked, shredded chicken.
