I have a pea

I'm feeling awkwardly sentimental and none of my writing is working, so I present to you an image of a baptisia flower. It's in the legume* family.  Speaking of legumes, I picked and ate my first pea pod from my garden this afternoon.  And, speaking of pee, Aster has been going in the potty for a week*

*Pea and bean family: Fabaceae = Leguminosae includes peas, beans, clover, alfalfa, peanuts, locust trees, mesquite, lupine, baptisia, locoweed, vetch . . . and prairie turnips.

**Furious wood-knocking accompanies this statement.  I may be a scientist but I am not so foolish as to leave superstition to chance.
