We're not homeless, we're houseless! By choice or by circumstance we are living in our vehicles. Don't worry about us -- it can be a very good life.

Anything that affects us as vehicle-dwellers is probably on topic.

{Edit: it was based on my usual dried beans recipe}

This was enough for dinner that night and lunch the next day. So divide these costs in half to get the per-meal cost:

  • 170Wh of energy
  • $1.11, if my math is right:
    • ~$0.24 for onion, $0.49/lb at the local mercado.
    • 180g of small red beans. These were free because someone had them but couldn't/wouldn't cook them in their rig...
    • ~$0.01 5g of salt
    • ~$0.03 dried chili pepper from a bulk bag, again from the mercado
    • $0.83 1/2lb of louisiana smoked sausages (hot) from the manager's discount bin

Pressed the Beans button on the 3qt Instant Pot and forgot about it until it was done. Served with cold beer....
