"I've used 2-liter bottles for yarn, but I cut the bottoms off instead of around the neck. It takes a wee bit of effort to thread the loose yarn end through the neck of the bottle, but I ofn't have that split where the bottle straightens out. They stand up nicely in little paper gift bags, so I can change colors easily. This really only works with the pull-skeins that unwind from the center."

"Growing up, our meals were a combination of 'down home" southern cooking and "Tex-Mex" food. We ate beans a lot. Even organic pinto beans are cheap and one pound goes a long way once they're cooked. Cornbread and beans were a staple, along with wild greens and fried potatoes. Leftover beans can be made into refried beans for burritos or used for chili. Refried beans are made by dumping beans in a frying pan, adding onion and garlic, smashing them a little with a spoon and cooking until the dish is thick. Simple chili just takes a little ground beef (less than you would think - about a half pound to 3 or 4 cups of beans, some onion, garlic and chili powder."
