Timely. I did my regular shopping yesterday (because hoarders can go to hell!) and it turns out that I snagged the *last* bag of dried navy beans at the store. I just wanted a pot of bean soup, not to stock up for the apocalypse!

I used to say that my son was made of chicken nuggets, because it was one of the few things he would eat. It was at least a stage, though, because he’s 20 years old now and will eat, or at least try, just about anything.
