What most moved him was a certain meal on beans.
~ Robert Browning
I have been seduced by the bean.
Sitting at my desk with my lunch of last night’s brown rice, catfish and other various bits of macro edibles, I wondered why the passion was gone after only eight days. I have no intention of leaving brown rice ~ I am fully committed to this relationship. But for some reason, the catfish creation thang ain’t got that swing ~ at least not today.

And then it struck me like a kitchen cabinet door left open. No beans in this dish. When I made dinner on Monday night, it was sublime. There was no hesitation, no dutiful must-eat-to-stay-alive grimace ~ you dove right in for seconds. And the only difference is that little dish had kidney beans and this little dish has none. Waah! So tonight’s dinner will have to include beans, most definitely.
And my CSA box is being delivered tonight ~ a fresh box of culinary possibilities. Fresh squeezed orange and grapefruit juice for breakfast tomorrow ~ hurrah!
Oremus pro invicem,
