Man, TNT is getting into a serious cleaning frenzy now too. She hates to clean, but when she starts, she'll do it for like HOURS and get really pissed if anything distracts her. Then she'll burn out and not want to clean anything ever again for like 12 years.

An hour a night would be a nice middle ground.

Also throwing things out that are ugly and will never ever be used again is RAD.

Black-eyed peas, a staple of American southern cuisine, were brought to the Americas with the slave trade. Originally called cow peas, they were used as cattle feed until the American Civil War, when people thought eating sounded like a really good alternative to starvation.

cut and paste job imo.

I NEVER cut & paste! My commas are too well-placed and the line "sounded like a really good alternative to starvation" is a total Chloe-line. Hmph!

What kind of beans are in the bean soup? Let me know and I will come up with something!
I would definitely soak them overnight. Unless you are dealing with lentils, nothing other than a good overnight soak works.
