Beans, Beans and more Beans

While my broccoli is quite disappointing - it's growing , but bolting because of the recent warm spell - my broad beans are thriving. Whenever it rains, they seem to grow a couple of inches overnight! Actually, I have no idea how to cook the beans once I've harvested, having never used them in meal preparation, but I'm willing to try.

Beans in forground, broccoli behind (a lot of weeds too!).

These are starting to flower, so beans must be on the way!
