Without searching, I'm not sure I've seen the brands people are
speaking about. Certainly not Hoppin' John. I'm a big Del Monte eater
since childhood. This is new. I just bought two cans but haven't tried
any yet.
Take it away, Bruce!

If you've got real tomatoes why are buying Classico?

You've mentioned them many times. And that's why Gregory Morrow is
posting this - to suck up to you. Because he knew you'd approve of
it and that pleases him in some demented fashion.

I get everything delivered VIA Postmates.com ever since the
Kardashians endorsed them.

The Kardashians and extended family added 40+ years to racism. It's
why we're here now. And it's disgusting.

I'm having some delivered from Target. Some is a good deal. Some isn't. They
have small red beans. Only store I know of in this area is Winco. Yes, they
are cheaper at Winco (their brand) but I have to factor gas in if I go
there.

I always buy pork ribs. I never buy baked beans. I must have had a stroke a
year or two ago and bought a big old can of Bush's Baked Beans or mistook
them for something else. I used to occasionally cook beef ribs and had fond
memories of them. I have no problem with Bush's Baked Beans. They're
excellent baked beans. I just don't like baked beans and forgot during my
stroke.
So I cooked beef ribs, then slathered with Bullseye Original Barbecue Sauce
with Bush's Baked Beans on the side, yesterday. That's it! At the end
of the meal, we both really needed a lemon to cleanse our palates and a
shower.
The meal needed something else, say cole slaw, but I didn't have a
cabbage. Oops!

I'm having a redo. The meal I had last week needed green peppers, mushrooms
and rice instead of potatoes. It's cooking now.

Hank: Beans don't 'counter' garlic breath.
 
Rather, they augment the concentration of foul-smelling components that
end up being produced in the digestive tract after eating allium.
(Onion / Garlic / Leek / Scallion / etc.)
 
It is the mustard that give beans their bad rap. Related Brassica
(rutabaga / cabbage / kale / etc. ) and asparagus add a similar 'air'.
 
(Thiol / Sulfanyl / Mercaptan)

A previous owner may have thought that he was much more of a handyman
than he really was. The base boards were badly cut and mismatched They
had to be replaced. I am not all that skilled with carpentry and
figured the narrower boards would be easier to work with. But
still..... the idea was that she would not have to worry about a the
work of having a smooth clean line at the bottom. I figured that she
could leave a one inch gap. It never occurred to me that she would leave 4".

That side of the room, the left side, is part of the 2008 $30,000 by a room addition wall Chinese Landlord said. Yes it's badly mismatched. But it works! So I say "Don't fix it".

That's "almost finished"?
 
I can only imagine the visual shock from walking up the front fuscia
porch, under the odd stained glass windows, and into ... that.
 
We should talk more often, John.

Mine are about 5 1/2". This is a relatively new style and size. I
remember about the 1960's people were taking out the old big baseboards
and putting in the clamshell style, about 4" or so. Elaborate panel
doors were replace with flush doors.
 
Some of the old baseboard styles were very ornate. I remember painting
the ones in my grandmothers house that was built about 1900.

That would ruin the two-tone and fell length Venetian blind clank of
the door whooshing open and closing.
 
John keeps that there for a reason but it's the most White trash
part of the entry way. All he sees is the $1,400 stained glass. I
can smell the wood rot from here.

We have coyotes and I have one of the few thoroughfares to a large
wilderness area. I often find parts of neighbors cats and chickens
in my yard.
 
Coyotes got interrupted the other day and left this great looking
pure black chicken in my parsley patch. I don't even bother asking
people if they lost a pet. I simply asked for a bottle of white
wine to make coq au vin.

You can see I even browned out the bloody guts part but I still got
banned from Nextdoor.com for that. <Sheesh> Those people are so
uptight sometimes. It wasn't even wearing a mask!
