An Unexpected Gift from........

........the great Lawn Ranger! We were "talking" on Facebook the other day about Anasazi Beans and I made a mention that they were hard to find around these parts. So, in the mail today came a box from Mike containing 4 bags of these precious gems from the Southwest USA. I was always fascinated with the history of these beans and their direct link to the Anasazi (Ancient Ones) Indians. For those of who don't know about the Anasazi people, they were the cliff dwellers of the Southwest and many of their dwellings are still standing in the four-corner states of Colorado, Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico. Mesa Verde and Canyon de Chelly are good examples of the many cliff dwellings found in the four-corners area. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I was an Indian in a former life......!?  

Thank you so much, Mike, for sending these to me.......I really and truly appreciate your thoughtfulness.......

    I had to do a double take before seeing that was a six pack.  I was excited for a second that I could tell my wife ordering from Ranch Gordo was a bargain.

    No surprise there. Mike's a great guy!!

    I've never seen those beans, or even heard of them. All I see are pintos, navy and the like. The stuff that Goya sells. 

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!
