I soak them overnight, then in the morning I drain, mix with some bouillon and water, and cook in a pressure cooker for 20 min. Then I add those beans to my daily meals in various ways.

My standard/favorite is that I airfry a lot of veggies (mushrooms, peppers, broccoli, onion…), and I add these cooked beans to the basket with a few minutes left. I marinate the veggies in oil and spices and before they go in, and the beans are good at soaking up the leftovers stuck to the marination bowl while the veggies cook. Then I put the beans and veggies in pasta with cheese (pasta fagioli mac and cheese!), on toast with tomato and cheese (like a pizza!), baked into a casserole of some sort (often with pierogies!), with shredded potato in a frying pan (latkes!), or with rice in a tortilla (burrito!). Varying the bean type and accompanying veggies prevents stagnation.

Sometimes I end up with extra bean broth from the pressure cooker, and I turn that into a gravy to go on french fries with some cheese and the beans and veggies to make poutine. Takes extra time (two uses of the airfrier), but super delicious. I’ll probably list that as my favorite.

The problem is that after fleeing to a new place, it’s hard to rebuild back to what you could have been. Especially when that new place is also xenophobic/exclusionary.

Refugees need a generation or two of rebuilding and growing into the new community to reach their full potential.

Mario Kart is a party game you play with people you want to casually hang out with one night.

Diddy Kong Racing is a game you play with someone (or yourself) over the course of many nights and sink into the story, fun worlds and characters, while taking on the racing challenges.

Mario Kart is a social lubricant party game with tight, balanced, and fun racing chaos. Diddy Kong Racing is a game with heart and soul and humour and exploration and a story.

tl;dr: I think this
