Serve with pitas or tortillas. Also, sauteed onions, greek olives, fresh tomatoes, or any other Meditarrean veggie.<BR/><BR/>And we NBJ'ed our 4th of July. Our apartment is right next to the stadium where they have the fireworks. So by sitting on top of the garage, we didn't buy any Independence Day firecrackers and we got a free show.<BR/><BR/>'Course I bought little flags for the kids, but that was only $2.50 and I had promised Angie that she could have a flag.Member of the Justice Leaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14945949513386957849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533197725373137370.post-62831118958284170262008-07-04T09:18:00.000-05:002008-07-04T09:18:00.000-05:00this is a great idea...i'd like to try, although i...this is a great idea...i'd like to try, although i have to buy stuff for the business...but i guess i could say, no buying any personal stuff... besides food.<BR/><BR/>oh, a yummy thing to do with black beans is to puree them with a bunch of fresh garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, extra virgin olive oil and a little water. it makes a tasty black bean spread...kinda like an alternative to refried beans.Eva / Sycamore Street Presshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05473612753403446630noreply@blogger.com
