Black Beans and Rice

Black bean dish

I made this dish a few hours ago. I had prepared a few pounds of black beans last week. I took one of the small bowls out of the freezer to make this meal. This dish consisted of:
Black beans, tomatoes, ginger, garlic, curry, whole cumin, and freshly ground cumin. I had soaked brown rice overnight and prepared it in an herbal tea to accompany this meal. The brown rice was fragrant and delicious. My daughter declared it ‘yummy’. She and Lalita did the magical disappearing act with their food.

I plan to roll a few in Nori wraps. My daughter will be able to eat it like a burrito. :-)

I started this piece this morning. Of course I had a helper so I was slowed down. I am hoping to complete it later today. This is a simple piece, definitely ‘understated’. It has my mom written all over it. It will be a set: Necklace, bracelet, and earrings.

sketchers + womans pleasants

This past Tuesday I received the boots above in the mail. They are made by Sketchers and are called ‘Woman’s Pleasants’. Too bad they were not in another color. I tried them on to make sure they fit correctly. I have not worn them out yet. They are extremely comfortable!
