My neighbor in Austin said she never measures anything for her grandma's chili, and it made me question a lot of my own cooking.

Ever measure anything now?

Used to think measuring stuff was a total waste of time, honestly. Then I tried tracking my daily water intake for a week after seeing a post from @lucask11. Seeing the actual numbers made me realize I was drinking way less than I thought. It completely changed how I see little daily habits now. Your mileage may vary, but having that hard data in front of me was a real eye-opener.

Yeah, the "hard data" thing... I started timing my doomscrolling sessions. It's bad, like over an hour a day just gone. Seeing the number really does make it feel more real.
