Beans and Other Green Things

As much as I like to pretend to throw down in the kitchen, it's hard to get creative with the cuisine when your biggest fan is a fastidious toddler who won't eat anything green. No sweet peas, no green apples, and definitely no asparagus. {Tasty as they may be}.
Scouring the grocery store aisle yesterday for a clever vegetable disguise, a recipe came to me from way back. Probably an old southern dish, it calls for fresh sweet corn, a drained can of french cut green beans and a pat of butter all in a pot with just a little water.
It was just as good as I remember. And Hayes ate every bean on his plate. {Green as they were}.
Here are some other green things Hayes is into these days...

Hey Brandhi,
Love the blog girl. Always so funny, quirky, honest and (thank god) brief! No time to read long passages these days. Smooches to you and Hayes;) -melba
