Sweet ...
I had my Taco Bell today, you know, for those keeping score over my way ...

been craving hot cheetos.

I love hot Cheeto's, the little crunchy spiral ones.

My stew turned out really good but I'm not hungry right now because malt liquor takes the hunger away.

Hey Thrash remember the link you posted to avoid anything with beans at Taco Bell.
Because they are reconstituted from dehydrated beens?
I've been thinking about that and aren't all of the main beens dehydrated?

Hahahaha, How was it anyway?

I want to address the nut situation! I love walnuts but perusing this idea I find even a small parcel of walnuts is amazingly expensive-Jesus when I was growing up walnuts weren't anything. Now I see all nuts have become almost unbuyable.  $5.00 dollar's for a few small ounces? WTF
You should get a tote sack full for $5.00.

Is it because of the drought? it isn't just walnuts, all other species are effected. THE PRICES for all shell nuts (except peanuts) in short ARE RIDICULOUS. ?


 

Radishes? My mom always chopped these suckers down to a hint of their existence. Tops off quite deep, tails off quite deep, leaving only a part of the main body, what a stupid bitch! I love the tails and leave them intact and now I know the tops are also very good for you to eat, (as long as they are fresh) in salads or stir fried as part of another dish. These are great things that should not be discarded. I will shop for radishes with a new eye from now on. I've always wondered why my mother was so paranoid about shit like this.

Well she died young (cigarettes) at 41 so I guess I will never know. Guess her paranoia about shit didn't help her.  ( did it have to do with pesticides?) something to think about.

But burning hamburger patties onto crunchy pucks for your children and most other meats to make sure they were fully done seems a bit over kill. (And worse than leaving it part raw) Give me a nice juicy rare steak today. My mom would have puked!

I buy peanuts. on rare occasions when I absolutely HAD to have a nut, Id buy. when I was in TX, pecan trees are easy to find. I brougght from TX and shelled about 10 cups of em. and that was only half of what I brought.

had an uncle in law ate radishes like peppers. very weird. Not particularly fond of the rasdish/ horseradish/ ginger flavors. cept once. hahahahaha

Which once ... oh, nevermind lol.
Love wasabi, but can't really afford it.

hah. nothing to cook today, have leftover lasagna, tamales, and I dont feel like either. I wanna burger or fried chicken.

Going bowling later today, may eat out, or drink or both, whatever.
Depends on who's buying. Hahahaha

got fried chicken.. it was good. not spicy enough, biscuits were old. got some angry orchard cider.

Is that Angry Orchard any good? Seems like a fad.

i like  light not too boozy beers. dont like to get drunk, just a light buzz. they are refreshing and delicious. three deep, and I can type, but have a buzz.

Three deep for you is three forties for me and yes I can still type in that/this condition. I'm not saying this is a good thing .

Drank two forties before going bowling and had a pitcher while there and still beat my buddy. He brought along his 6 year old and she was a blast. She actually beat both of us.

What a cool girl she is.  It was a really good time.

Oh and I now have pizza!

still havent gotten pizza. three beers nd im done for.

It was good, thanks ...
I'm not sure it was me that spoke of the beans ...

ive never had dehydrated beans. but arent all beans dehydrated?

I got up, made my man breakfast, packed him lunch, and im going back to sleep.

Those not canned; yeah ...
 I have several bean soups that start off dehydrated ...

I had the chance to have fresh beans, but they were really pricey

It was from the Misc Interesting Articles about fast food items to avoid.

I want a salad, dammit, but all we have is iceberg lettuce.

I bought Iceberg 2 days ago, I have tomatoes and cottage cheese to go with it.
I actually bought it as an excuse to use my cottage cheese before it goes bad.
The tops on my radishes have already started to wilt. But I have fresh green onions!

I made one of those bean soups today ....
Beans, beef broth, spicy diced tomatos, spices ...
... cook 4 or hours .... Yumminess!!!

Takes a lot to change the flavor of basic beans doesn't it?

... oh, and half an onion and 7 cups of water

I'm gonna fart all night!!!

I love charro beans. cilantro, onion, tomato, cumin, pork, either bacon, or hunks of meat and low and slow cooking.

>>I love charro beans<<
 
What are charro beans? You mean refried?

A great addition to many recipes.

Refried is exactly what the story is about.

Easy to cook beans and gage there reception, cook them again and let them dry out,
Then you have what TACO BELL has.

This is not really bad, the important stuff is still present.

charro, usually the aforementioned veggies, and some kind of meat for grease, either pork, usually the skin or chorizo. you can add whole peppers and fish em out when done and it has a good deep spicy flavor.

refried, usually just plain beans, mashed with more animal fat, again, usually chorizo. Love refried beans on a fresh flour tortilla.

Was going to ask you about Gumbo.

How many hot peppers doe it take? I mean what is acceptable on the hot scale?
