I met <a href="http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=Walter+Whitewater&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8">Walter Whitewater</a> while working with Lois on cookbooks and food advertising. The ray of light pointing at the pot was my touch and it became known as "the light of god." One thing led to another and "Beans from God" became our title for this picture. Walter turns it into Navajo and then translates it back as "Beans of the Gods." It always starts with a title (thanks to <a href="http://www.raybradbury.com/">Ray Bradbury</a>.)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30338203-115143443336893777?l=beansofthegods.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Koophttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03206426514858640958noreply@blogger.com0
