Well.. I always thought I was a girl Goomba too! (pats

There is just one of me, by the way. Ignore the other
Goombawannabes. I've had some glitches in the recent past
with comcast and when I returned online and to RFC after a
few weeks off I saw there was some ****** using my (gasp!)
handle here. A deja search reveals him to be a total newbie
under that handle. He top posts annoyingly so that is one
clue it's not me. But we all know.. there is only ONE Damsel

Oh... That's different.

I'm not Lynn, but I add chopped bacon, chopped onion, brown sugar,
ketchup, and yellow mustard to canned beans, then bake in a bean pot
at 300 degrees for 1-2 hours. We had these yesterday with ribs, mac
salad, etc. when friends came over. Small Child ate 3 helpings of
beans, thank goodness he has his own bedroom. ;-)

Thanks for the first smile of the day! It feels good to be back. And
although this may sound strange, after re-subscribing to RFC, I'm going
back to low-carbing after a 1.5 month hiatus and an 8 pound weight gain.

I blame (actually *thank*) Alan (hahabogus) for reminding me that I am, in
fact, a diabetic, no matter how much I plug my ears and yell, "La-la-la-
la-la-la!

Thank you for the welcome!

This IS Lynn
All of that stuff sounded great. In addition, I usually add a shot of
Tabasco and a can of pineapple tidbits (drained).

I will try the Captain Ken's this weekend!
