He was a bit crestfallen when I wasn't as excited about his find as he was, but I've not only cooked them, I've written about it as well.

There's no insulation and we use an efficient fire place for heat. Every morning in July and August, I take my cup of tea out to my deck and sit under my umbrella and read. From my vantage point right at the edge of the lake I get a pretty good view of the wildlife around me. Chipmunks, red squirrels, snapping turtles, mink, ducks, loons, hummingbirds, and this year a beaver are pretty frequent visitors. Usually.

It was a quick meal and better for us than spaghetti-o's. We always ate them on their own, rather than having them as part of a meal, and that's the way I've always thought of them. I don't buy processed food, but I still love baked beans, so I decided to try making them myself. When I was a kid we always had cans of baked beans in the cupboard.
