Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

TOOT TOOT


Happy Thursday Guys and Dolls:


Guess what today is? It is “NATIONAL BEAN DAY.” Those lovely little beans that give you gas all day long, but forget the gas today and enjoy the beans. Let’s remember that little song we all knew and sang as kids:

“BEANS, BEANS THE MUSICAL FRUIT,
THE MORE YOU EAT THE MORE YOU TOOT.”

Or this one that I remember so well and sang so many times each time bringing a smile to my young face.

“JOEY ATE THE BEANS
AND THE BEANS EXPLODED,
50 YARD DASH TO THE TOILET SEAT,
DIARRHEA, POOP, POOP, DIARRHEA.”


Its fun remembering things you sang and did as a kid. Let me think of the kind of beans I like to eat. Number one has to be Pork and Beans, great with dogs and burgers, Sloppy Joes, Mac and Cheese. Pork and Beans is a number one fusion bean. Kidney beans great in chili. Garbanzo beans love those in salads or just plain out of the can. Lima beans great buttery taste put in a little fried bacon and serve them as a side dish. Split peas great for pea soup with carrots, ham and potatoes, my Mother use to make a great pea soup. Here is a little tidbit for you, did you know Black beans are considered to be one of the Top Ten Brain Foods. So get those kids started eating beans and on the highway to Smartsville.

So have a great day, eat those beans and give a toot and a big hoot. See you Speakies later.

It's a "food is off limits" day and even simple beans sound good. My son just got done making bacon and eggs and it was a better than usual batch of bacon. My nose could tell.

Sigh.

beans, beans are good for the heart
the more you eat the more you fart
the more you fart
the better it feels
so just eat beans for every meal

Thursday may have been Prince Spaghetti day in Boston but Friday was frank and beans supper all over New England. That and that B&B Bread in a can.

It was religion.
