So it's Labor Day. I thought I would minimize labor. I expected that
I'd knock back a few and simmer up some frozen bite sized ham chunks from Easter in just enough water, drop in some canned Pintos and feed my wife. Things were going well until she figured out what I was doing. "Can I have some cornbread?" What! Ten minutes of messin' and fixin' ingredients off of a Albers cornbread box, heating the oven and greased skillet, pouring the ingredients and twenty five minutes after that, I finally achieved peace. I made her serve herself. What part of Labor Day don't people get? leo |

Although I am not a huge fan of pinto beans your dinner does sound pretty good. No chopped onion to go with those beans? |

I bought them often when they put out the buy one get one free coupons. Then about a year ago, they stopped that deal and started with the 5 for 5 lunch...no thanks. Now they have the 2 for $6 deals for just whoppers. That's close enough for me and I plan to buy a couple in the next few days. I have been craving them as it's been well over a year since I had some. I don't add anything to those. I like them just as they come. |

I like them just as they come. Ddon't you mean just as they ***? How can any normal brained person stomach that dreck... only one way... TIAD! Some decent restaurants serve decent burgers but not many. Today at the market in town they were selling family pack (3+lbs) ground beef BOGO. They were also selling top round roasts BOGO... guess which I bought. I asked my favorite meat lady to get me two five pounders, by the time I did the rest of my shopping she had them all ready for me. About half of one, thre thicker end will go into the oven for tonight's dinner. The other one was cut in half, the thicker end was frozen. The two narrower ends were ground and frozen in two ~2 lb packages. No one who says they cook can make me believe they cook when they eat fast food, especially mystery meat... I can understand an Eyetalian sub from a deli or doctered frozen pizza but never mystery meat burgers. |

I do cook carrot coins separately and serve them in my portion. She likes just ham and beans. No extra seasoning at all. The ham broth provides the salt. leo |

I love chopped fresh onion with bean chili. I know, no such thing. Now to remember in about a month when I cook it again. Carrots don't sound good if I add fresh onion. Onion sounds better. Thanks for the inspiration. I just gotta remember. Wife says no. I say yes. It's on for me! leo |
