I didn't get any this year. I have some pintos quick soaking now. They say
best by 10/15 so they may take a little longer to cook. Oddly enough most
of what I have in the cupboard are navy beans. They were so hard to find, I
must have ordered a case of them or something. I don't remember. I do
remember that I did not make the baked beans for the 4th of July like I
normally do. I think I will make some next week.
