I am watching Radio Days on Netflix and cooking a big pot of pinto beans, this is my Saturday night.

Radio Days is the only Woody Allen movie that I like.

Hope everyone is having fun this Labor Day weekend.

3. I like the Dog Whisper, great show.

I need the pinto beans for Monday.

I am making a really big pot of beans.

Sounds like we are having a exciting Saturday night.

red beans (cajun style) and rice last weekend cooked them on Saturday ate them on Sunday. It's been forever since I've seen Radio Days. Enjoy.

6. Radio Days is a good family movie.

I sometimes add rice to my pinto beans but not this time.

I add ham to my pinto beans along with garlic and bacon and other things.

7. do you presoak?

I have always been curious and frequently intend to ry it but never do.

I use (in order of preference) either a ham bone, salt pork, bacon (ends or a few slices cut in pieces), or just bacon grease (when I'm REALLY poor) onion garlic, black pepper and never salt until they are done (except with salt pork, no need for more)

If I am taking them to a pot luck where vegans might be, I skip the pork and use a little bit of salad oil just for the mouth feel.

10. Sometimes I presoak, never really noticed a big difference.

I use bacon, garlic, and a ham bone if I have one.

I do have some store bought pinto bean seasoning I use also.

The beans should be finished in a few hours.

15. I am now watching Life After People Season 2, don't know why.

My question is where is all the dead bodies.

I think it would be messy for awhile.

I watch Netflix or online more the cable.

16. This pot of beans could feed about 20 to 25 people.

That is a lot of gas.
