that's excellent. What foul individuals.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Holy crapballs, Suzi.
I've run out of places to look for the paperwork. I honestly don't remember getting it from him. BUT, I did find a bag I apparently haven't looked at since we moved here over 3 years ago. It had my flight information, the feline pill pockets, an almost empty bottle of water, and an unopened tub of Trader Joe's dark chocolate covered ginger. SCORE!!!
I'm feeling very Scarlet O'Hara over the paperwork - I'll worry about it tomorrow.
Recent research suggests that heterosexual men’s (but not heterosexual women’s) cognitive performance is impaired after an interaction with someone of the opposite sex (Karremans et al., 2009)....Together, these results suggest that an actual interaction is not a necessary prerequisite for the cognitive impairment effect to occur. Moreover, these effects occur even if men do not get information about the woman’s attractiveness. This latter finding is discussed in terms of error management theory.”
I hope you find it, Suzi.
I am cooking dried black beans for the first time. I soaked them overnight, changing the water a few times. I don't have most of the stuff that one usually puts in them, apparently, so I put in some olive oil, bacon fat, and creole spice mix. I've been cooking them for, oh, 40 minutes and they are nowhere near done. My questions are: how much longer? and will they taste awful? My plans for them include shredded cheddar cheese, salsa, a tortilla, and maybe some sour cream. And possibly rice tomorrow.
how much longer?
Possibly a while. Beans are one of those annoying "cook until done" foods.
And add salt after they're done. I think they'll taste lovely.
Wow, that is an impressive gathering. I was glad to hear Katehi condemn the policemen's actions in no uncertain terms, but I do wonder how much of that is trying to save her own ass. Please note - I know nothing of her.
Being very hungry, I have given up on the beans for the evening. I made cheese toast with leftover bacon. I shall attempt the beans again on the morrow.
I just cooked some black beans on Saturday, and they took about 2 hours to cook. And they still had a bit of chew to them.
Nora, did you presoak them?
