beans and clouds

This is one of my pantry standbys: Cuban Black Beans. I can make it when I have nothing else in my house. I forgot to picture the rice, but I'm sure you can imagine that on your own.

In my kids' devotion for the day, they were told to make "cloud cake." They were told to buy a pound cake, caramel sundae topping and whipped cream. While this devotional had a top notch idea, their proposed execution definitely could use improvement. Buy it? Who do they think they are talking to? We baked a pound cake, cooked up a batch of (delicious!) caramel topping and then whipped up some heavy cream. The conclusion? Oh yeah. Exquisite.
