Green (and Purple) Beans!

Ryan Kraeger

It’s that time of the year! Beans are coming in. We had our first picking on Tuesday.

Nasturtiums, and a hummingbird.

Six quarts, first haul of the year. (The purple ones turn green when they get pressure canned.)

"I only remember the very first part of the book where he described the man of steel and velvet and I remember the deep chord that phrase struck. I remember the image I had of a hand of living steel wearing a velvet glove, a hand that could crush or caress, strike a killing blow or wipe away tears, lift mountains or cradle an infant. The rest of the book was an afterthought." From an essay about Aubrey Andelin's "Man of Steel and Velvet".
