Bean bread or something, Presidents' Day and Freecycle

 I found a recipe for chickpea flatbread and thought I'd try it. Went to assemble the ingredients and found there were no chickpeas. Then I remembered they're in next week's order,not here yet.

So I thought why not use those cannellini beans, similar food group. 

And found they have a different texture, too thin a dough. So I added cornstarch and chickpea flour, had to get chickpeas in there somehow, and we'll see.

I didn't have the baking dishes the YouTube lady had, so I improvised. Small glass dish, and crumpet rings.

Needs to bake a bit longer maybe.

I baked longer, and the bigger one needed yet more time, so here are the small ones 

The one on the plate will join my soup lunch, and I think the others would be good finished on top of the stove in a cast iron pan.  

This was more of an interesting experiment than a wild success, though it's edible anyway. The seeds on top are cumin, very good for digestion when you're eating beans.

So here's one in the pan. 

I think it will toast well, too. 

It turned out very tasty with the carrot potato soup. It was too fragile to pick up, but I broke off pieces and that worked.

Endless rain here, heavy varied with light, but here's the good part: too warm for ice! Also my car's getting rain washed.

Monday is a holiday. Well, all my days are, really. It means no mail, mainly. Next week I'll see if my social security arrives. And I'll celebrate Joe Biden, one of the best Presidents of my lifetime, for the four halcyon years he gave us.

Thank you, Joe.

Happy day, everyone, try something new. Successful or not, you'll know more than you do now! Speaking of which, an excited Freecycler is picking up all the art materials tomorrow.  

She's wanting to weave something for her daughter's wedding, that little box contains handmade cardweaving cards, to go with the warping thread, and she plans to learn linocut which she's never done. Cool.
