National Eat Beans Day/Baked Beans Month

I have a confession to make…. I always say that I don’t like something when I’ve never tried. I hate, hate, hate when people put pressure on my to try new foods. Why don’t they get that I’m perfectly happy eating the same thing everyday??

Such was the case with Baked Beans and Maple Syrup, but I recently gave in and holy crap, I feel like I need to write a letter apologizing to my taste buds for depriving them all these years. And I only tried the canned kind! 

Knowing that homemade is usually better than canned, I got on Pinterest (because it’s basically Google Images and found this recipe for Canadian Maple Baked Beans and…. it by one of my favorite bloggers Oh She Glows!!! Score :) I’m drooling just thinking about how happy I am it’s cookout/bbq season. I need to stop.
