Tarot Find

My boyfriend found these amazing vintage tarot cards.  I love them, and I'm going to figure out something really cool to do with them.  When I do, you'll be the first to know!

Beans

I was soaking beans for dinner tonight, and was struck by the beautiful colors, the way the water magnifies each bean, and the wrinkled patterns on some of them.   I just had to take a picture of them.

On another note, apparently beans and rice are better for you together.  My mom read that somewhere, and cites it almost every time I tell her that I'm trying to figure out what to make for dinner!
