Last Friday’s Debbie Downer top ten list was a rousing success. I’m not sure whether the response is an indication of the popularity of top ten lists or proof that every party needs a pooper. In an attempt to determine the real reason, Tuesday posts will be dedicated to top ten lists for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n
Today’s list tackles the top ten reasons to make bean soup before March ends.<\/p>\n
10.\u00a0 March is the last, honest-to-goodness soup weather month.<\/p>\n
9.\u00a0 Do you really want that half bag of beans cluttering the pantry all summer?<\/p>\n
8.\u00a0 Ditto for the ham shank in the freezer.<\/p>\n
7.\u00a0 Bean soup is cheap and healthy.<\/p>\n
6.\u00a0 It’s one of those foods that tastes better as leftovers.<\/p>\n
5. With St. Patty’s Day over and Easter in April, what else is there to do in March?<\/p>\n
4.\u00a0 It’s an easy crock pot meal.<\/p>\n
3.\u00a0 Bean soup in the crock pot makes the house smell delicious all day long.<\/p>\n
2.\u00a0 Every kid needs to learn the lyrics to Beans, Beans the Musical Fruit<\/em> at a young age.<\/p>\n 1.\u00a0 Making music as a family is a wonderful, bonding experience.<\/p>\n Did you think of a reason I left out? Then add it in the comment box, toot sweet!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last Friday’s Debbie Downer top ten list was a rousing success.
