Life lessons and refried beans.


 Yesterday I was heating up some homemade chicken stew, I noticed there was not a full portion and decided to add something that was quick. I had some refried beans and decided to heat them up. Later I texted a friend, "whoa... note to self, never eat refried beans again"! He text back, "lol, grossing yourself out are we"? Yup! I didn't think it was possible to make the house smell like the barn without the use of farm animals... but apparently it is. Somewhat comical when I can't stand to be in the same room as me and it's a very odd feeling when you become annoyed with yourself, "ahh really Steve, really"???

 How can one little meal produce so much fuel? I have a lot of guilt now, I feel that I single handedly have caused a greater negative impact on climate change. Another lesson I learned besides staying away from refried beans... is that when you go to bed with this "issue"... blankets are not your friend!

  5. Methane is a much more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. Having said that, if you aren't eating the beans then the cows and chickens are, and they fart too.

    1. Lurker, I knew it, in fact I think I killed off at least three endangered species. Of course none of them would be mosquitoes.

  6. Eating rice with refried beans helps eliminate the after effects.

  8. Steven, I love how you can class up a flatulence story! Beans don't have that effect on me. Now broccoli, WHEW! I also discovered yesterday, that sugar causes me to go into full thruster mode now that I cut it out of my diet for the most part. Never again will I fall for delicious, brown and oh so good round rum balls.

    1. My DD, I'm actually okay with broccoli and regular canned beans. Homemade beans are a completely different story (everybody run)! Thanks for saying I'm classy while being gassy! :D

  9. One of the benefits of living alone. The freedom to do as you wish. Also, I would advise that you get a dog. You can always blame it on the dog.
