looks good to me in either form. :)

sprawl is one habit of beans for sure as i have seen it here too. no wrapping around anything to climb, just there...

very beautiful kitty and plant combo...

the delayed digestive effect may happen later, but starting with a smaller portion is usually a good idea when introducing new items to the system. which is what i recommend with dry bean cooking too for people who aren't used to eating many of them. just add a few spoonfuls to a meal and then...

all yours ma'am as i would be quite ok with a smidgeon of chocolate frosting on some graham crackers (not sure what you call those other than bicuits over the pond there...). i think i'm down 5lbs and can afford some more ballast this morning.
