Butter beans (lima beans.....don't wrinkle your noses people) and sweet corn (cut off the cob) cooked in a magical juice of.......you know what? I don't really know!

Yum! Those sound good...and they remind me of Naomi Shihab Nye's "Mint Snowball". Are you Scandanivian? (Mor Mor, Far Far, Far Mor, and Mor Far are grandparents' names in Danish.) Happy birthday to your little one and to you too. May this year be full of joyous little things for both of you!
