They were mail order but not sure from where. |

I keep checking, but they are never there. Exactly. I just had to place an online order from Safeway. I was going to go shopping today but will be unable to do it for a variety of reasons of things going acropper. Anyway... When I took a lot at my past order history, perhaps 1/4 of what I had ordered in the past is either no longer carried or the product has changed. And if I find something once at Costco or Trader Joes, they may never have it again. |

And I won't necessarily order from the same place again. Online stores do change prices and such. What I hate having to do is chase around to many different stores looking for something. Earlier, I opted for a delivery from Safeway. They had all but one item that I had ordered and I only ordered that to bump up the order to get the free shipping. It was gold potatoes which wasn't an immediate need although I did use up all of the gold potatoes that I had. They did not sell a couple of the items that I wanted. One might be available in the store but not for delivery and the other they just do not sell. I also had to get smaller bags of apple slices but they can just deal with that! I thought I had bought enough to get me past the 1st but someone pigged out on them. Had I gone shopping, I would *not* have gone to Safeway. Or if I did, it would likely be only for bread. I would have had to go to two other stores to get the other things on my list and while those two stores are close together, it would mean about a two hour commute (combined to and from) and I would probably still have had to stop elsewhere for the bread although more and more stores are carrying this kind. I just had a bad feeling about the shopping trip and it was a good thing that I did. I had a handyman come this morning to fix one thing and give me a quote for another. But everything went wrong. He overslept and wound up coming two hours later than he said he would. Then two people prior had given me wrong information and it turned out that the part I thought I needed was not the correct part. So he had to go back to the store to exchange it plus get an outdoor faucet. Plus do a lot of research as to why I had massive amounts of water in several spots in my yard but long story short there, we think it was just from all the rain we've had. At first he was convinced it was a leak. So... While the original plan was to have him leave somewhere around 9:00 a..m., he didn't actually leave until around 3:00 p.m. If I leave that late in the day, I play to get back here in time to have dinner ready before my husband gets home. Shopping then often means my having to pick up something hot and ready or something I can toss in the microwave but even then that is a problem because I have to go through the bags to find the dinner food. This works okay if I can get pizza but I can't always do that. Anything else I might get is sure to be something he won't particularly like. At any rate, I got enough things to get me through the holiday and then we can do a good grocery shop. |

That makes sense to me, Julie. When it comes to bean recipes, I feel you are the expert to ask even though you have many food issues. You love beans!@ Hope you got some in your christmas stocking. heheh |

I've met most of my neighbors, which with such large properties there aren't a great many... but we are mostly neighborly in rural places, not so much best buds, we don't socialize but we all get along just fine, and we'll all stop to chat for a few minutes if we happen to see each other outside, usually in the driveway. I met that Irish family because two of their teenage sons will do chores and I pay them... btw, for $10/hr they'll work a lot harder than cleaning houses. And I already posted all about the Honeyville steel cut oats several times, and that I buy them in 50 lb sacks because they cost a whole lot less per pound than buying them in those fancy schmancy tins imported from Ireland. Those from Honeyville are grown in Canada, they are excellent quality, but they come in a heavy paper sack like a C-menta bag. I must have made a dozen posts about how I cook them in a slow cooker to save all that stirring... steel cut oats are the only thing I found a slow cooker good for. About two years ago I lost my interest in eating oatmeal every day so I gave my slow cooker away. I still had about ten pounds of steel cut oats left, I mixed it in with my bird seed... at that time Honeyville steel cut oats cost the same as I paid for bird seed, less than a dollar a pound. |

Methinks you are a fine neighbor - both to people *and* to the animal/wildlife around you... What it comes down to is that you've had a successful life, and you continue to enjoy that life...some peeps here are simply jealous of that, a not - so - good reflection on *them"...sad and twisted they are! A Happy - and prosperous! - New Year to you, Sheldon. You are one of a small handful of posters that keeps me reading this group ;-) -- Best Greg |

Someone from New England could tell us all about yellow eyed beans.

You are one of a small handful of posters that keeps me reading this group ;-) You have a Happy & Healthy New Year too, Greg Morrow, I consider you a true blue friend. A couple of days ago there were horrific winds here and a Norway spruce was blown down in front by my creek, called my tree guy and he arrived yesterday and removed it, saved me a job in the spring. While I had him here he removed two more Norway Spruce that were about dead and ground a huge stump. Looyd was a tree guy for the local power company but decided to go out on his own, no one else I've ever seen is better at climbing trees with a chain saw. He's done many jobs for me, always a fair price. Lloyd dispatched that tree in under an hour, would have taken me two full days, maybe three http://i67.tinypic.com/10gy2r7.jpg http://i64.tinypic.com/fp1ti.jpg |

All the various beans look very different and interesting, but is it all worth it or do all beans taste roughly the same? -- Bruce |

My trash here contains nothing edible or compostible. |
