Love the gingham image with the ? mark. My question is: how do I get my homemade black beans to taste better if I make them in the crock pot. Also, any way to get them softer?

Kirsten,
Thanks for the comment. I’ll be answering your question next week so stay tuned!
A couple of years I ago I purchased one of the kids a multi-layered coat with multiple pieces that zip in and. Well, he promptly took out the inner layer and wore only the shell. Fast forward to today; the jacket no longer fits and I am rounding up all of the pieces to launder and hand down. Problem: the inner layer still has the anti-theft device on it. How do I get it off without damaging the jacket and without having to take the jacket to a store to have the anti-theft device removed? Thank you in advance for your words of wisdom!!
Darcy, I’d love to answer this question for you! Your question and answer will be posted next week…stay tuned for more and thank you.
