Crockpot & Baking

[bertine]

This morning I put everything in my crockpot that is needed for Split Pea soup. I am hoping it turns out. My plan is to freeze half of the soup for later. Then over the weekend I am planning on making a batch of 16 bean soup and doing the same thing. It will be very nice to have a few meals in the freezer and I like beans and don't know why I don't eat them more often.

I wish making bread didn't take so much time so I could get a batch out of the oven before we eat dinner but I think I am just going to buy some bread after I go to the gym. Then I can make banana bread instead and save the fresh bread for this weekend.

But the inter-bean-interaction!!!

I dunno, I've never done more than 5 kinds of beans. Well, 6 if you cound the tofu. Except I put soybeans in it anyway (;

but not barley.

Anyways, I am not the one that counted them, take it up with trader joe's!

Oh pfft. In that case I'm just going to assume that three of them are actually brightly coloured plastic.
