took a few photos of the violet blooms today… the greenery in these plants is very deep and rich looking…

  
pleased with how they came out… this was with my iPhone…

had some delicious green beans for my dinner…

  
I spent the rest of the evening preparing about seven pounds of beans, mainly green, but a few yellow… lots of work involved…

  
many minutes of “top and tailing”… that’s what my mom called it… 

she’d be so proud… I remember when we lived on the farm in La Salle and had a large garden and how she loved working in it…

  
blanched the beans…

  
popped them into cold water and filled bags to go into the freezer…

  
rather proud of myself when I put ten packages into the freezer…

that was besides eating about 3 cups and putting aside a large container for us to take camping on the weekend…

great fun… now to rest, lol…
