Not *Quite* Done, It Seems...

So I hadn't realized, until Mom pointed it out, that bean plants get spent. There's only so many beans they'll give and they won't keep on giving beans. I feel like I should have known that, but for whatever reason, that fact hadn't taken hold in my brain ever. If it had, I'd have re-planted beans last year more than I did.

Be that as it may, Mom and I were pretty sure the bean plants I had were coming to that point. We planted some more and stuff, but I hadn't ever gotten rid of the other plants. They kept giving a few beans here and there, you see. 

Well, if you can't tell what I found a week ago or so by the pictures here, I'll tell you. Blossoms! Heck yeah! Those old plants have been full of blossoms and giving beans again for the past couple of weeks. The new plants aren't big enough, but these things are adding up. I may be able to freeze some eventually after all. Wouldn't that be awesome?

And here's one just to show you what I got a couple of days ago. That's enough for a meal right there, especially with the others over the past week. 

So all is picking up on the ol' faux homestead. Tomorrow - Tomatoes! Tee hee!
