A Few Quick Notes 293

-It seems that we have managed to turn back the clocks and re-enter Winter. I would guess that we have between 5 and 10 cm of snow on the ground in most places, and a little wind and drifting to convince those stragglers that we are definitely in the midst of a period of inclement weather. Fortunately, as of tomorrow things are supposed to become a little warmer and sunnier.

-For dinner tonight we had a white kidney beans with pork and vegetables cooked in a slow cooker. I think the most useful aspect of this dinner is that we reached the conclusion that we prefer white kidney beans to red kidney beans. There seemed to be key attributes that made them better. Firstly, as their colour didn't bleed as much (we have had a particular problem in this area with green lentils). Secondly, the skin seemed to be thinner. This made for a more pleasurable eating experience. It is quite good that we found these passable as we have a bag and a half to get through.

-Almost immediately after dinner all three of us went for naps. While all of us are relatively regular nappers, it is somewhat unusual for us to all nap at exactly the same time. The beans seem to have wiped us out.

-I am not quite sure what we will be having for dinner tomorrow night. Hopefully it is something tasty.

I didn't actually end up napping, I read instead.

Don't worry, I am sure it will happen one day.
