11. I am making two soups

But they are not for tonight's dinner.

I am making split pea with ham soup and navy bean with ham soup (we had a HUGH!!!11 ham this week and there was enough for two soups - which will go in the freezer for those days when life is too busy to actually cook).

Last night it was hot dogs and S'mores cooked on forks over an open bonfire in our backyard with all the neighborhood kids. Then we played "light tag" until we all had to sit down...

Yep, we ARE sophisticates, let me tell ya...

50. would you elaborate on the black beans & barley?

[Mendocino]

52. BB&B

1 large onion chopped
2 stalks celery cut into quarter inch slices
2 cloves garlic very finely minced
1 bay leaf crushed
1 1/2 tbl or so of peanut oil
2 pounds black or red beans soaked overnight or parboiled
3 cups water
2 tbl chopped fresh parsley
2 cups quick cooking barley
2 cups frozen or fresh corn
salt and pepper

In a 3 quart pan, saute onion, celery, garlic and bay leaf in the oil until onions are just beyond translucent, add drained beans and water. Stir and cook over low heat until beans are tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add water if needed to keep from sticking, stir occasionally. Add parsley and corn, cook for another 1/2 hour. Meanwhile cook the barley. Keep stirring once in awhile and check water. Season with salt and pepper, serve over barley. Makes about 6 hearty servings. Hope you like.
