Sweet peas

We all know what they look like in the can...but here they are growing in the garden!!!
See the blossoms at the top? Lee to!d me that his grandfather had him plant sweet peas just for their sweet smell. We plant them for the peas!!! But they really do smell sweet.
This year I planted three different varieties, and they're all mixed up. I don't care! When the pods are flat, we eat them as snow peas. When the pods fill up and get fat, we use them as shelled peas.
I told Momma that we are growing peas in the garden, and I'll bring her some. If we have enough, I'll take them when I go to VA. If we don't have enough, I'll stop at the Ingles store in Black Mountain and buy some, and say they came from our garden. It will make her happy. Don't tell.....
HAPPY GARDENING!!!!
