Being a time consuming, back breaking task, dinner for the hungry family literally went to the back burner. A large pot of red kidney beans was put on in the morning, cooked and simmered throughout the day with little attention other than adding water and maybe sausage or a ham bone leftover from Sunday. When the wash was done and the family sat down at night - voila, red beans and rice for supper!!!
