Indeed, I attest that they were tasty.  They could have used a little more
salt.  Nearly all bean dishes can -- beans are dreadful salt-sucks and will
absorb all available salt given a chance (uh-oh, there goes our sodium
levels!).

Margaret, in all the evening excitement and exhaustion, I didn't get your
recipes.  Could you post them to me or give me a copy tomorrow at Barony?
