i usually eat the ones i grow, once in a while we
make soups with others that i don't grow (white beans
and split green peas). i haven't ever grown favas
and don't plan on it. i'd rather grow peas if i were
going to use the space for something different.

fresh peas are yum. but i like shelly beans
even more than peas. shelly lima beans are our
all-time favorites. this past summer i finally
had a big enough patch that we were able to eat them
often enough to feel like it was worth it.
