ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FOR TUESDAY, APRIL 20TH, 2021
The moments our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Today is Lima Bean Respect Day, which honors the lima bean which are incredibly good for you. They are filled with nutritious fiber, potassium, iron copper and manganeses. Lima beans are also low in fat and contain inhibitors that stall the development of cancerous cells. Lima beans may not be your favorite healthy vegetable, but today is a day to show them some respect.
Humans have been cultivating lima beans since 6000 BC. Today people use them in recipes for soups, spreads, casseroles, and salads. In Japan green baby lima beans are an important ingredient in bean paste, which is a popular dessert. Succotash, a dish found in the southern region of the United States , conbines lima beams, corn and chili peppers.
To celebrate today enjoy some tasty lima beans cooked in your favorite way.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Better beans and bacon in peace than cakes and ale in fear.
Aesop
My favorite way to eat lima beans is in succotash, but I don’t have any chili peppers in mine. I like mine flavored with butter. No doubt about it, beans of all sorts are good for us, so it’s important to include them in our diet. Today I’ll probably have some as a side dish with my dinner.They are something I keep stocked in the pantry.
As predicted, it has cooled off today and we’ll be in the 40’s once more. There is a good chance of rain which may change into snow. This roller coaster weather needs to settle down and let Spring happen.
I hope you all have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!!

It's going to snow but the ground is still warm so hopefully a lot will melt and not stick around.
40s again! I sure hope it will warm up and stay warm there soon!
Until last year I believed I hated lima beans. But once I became a fan of Camp Stew -- and discovered lima beans were a part of all that deliciousness -- I had to eat my words. (No pun intended!) Like I was explaining to someone, they seem to absorb all the other flavors.
PS - Great saying about home! Did you paint that sign?
Love, love, love that first picture of the birds:) Sorry I have to pass on the lima beans but I won't argue that they are good for you.
