But I've got an amusing tale, at least I think it's amusing. Years and years
ago, about a hundred years ago, I was the grocery store looking at the bags
of dried 'limas.' I bought a bag, cooked them and enjoyed them to the last
bean. But I was sorely disappointed that my 'limas' were not green nor did
they turn green after cooking. I laugh about it now but at the time I thought
I had really been cheated.
