Gobble gobble

Happy belated veteran's day, and happy early turkey day. Been a long time it seems, and I wish I had something more thought provoking to talk about. I did discover that on the interwebs there is a lot of useful information in the form of free recipes. However, I discovered that everyone and their grandma has a different way to cook pinto beans. Pre-soaking, no pre-soaking, 1 hour to cook, 10 hours over low heat, salt, no salt, bacon, no bacon, whole side of pork dipped in more pork, the list goes on and on. I say all this because for the first time today I attempted to make some beans. They were edible, and provided much entertainment a few hours later (go figure that one out), but they could have been better. The good news is that I have a few more pounds of the wonderful fruit, and plan on trying out a few more methods.
