MORE BEANS

As I have said before I love Mondays!  Today I finished planting the garden.  In an attempt to get rid of all squash bugs, I am not planting any squash this year. We have potatos, corn, beets, turnips, cucumbers, peas, french beans, yellow wax beans, purple beans, onions, peppers, parsnips, tomatoes, carrots,watermelon, honeydew.  We have blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, Apricots, peaches, cherries, apples, pears.  Keeps us busy .  But believe me I an grateful to my Heavenly Father for these blessings!

I would imagine that a certain type of beans are needed for the pie... what kind do you use?
