Shout-out to my husband for being brilliant with technology... and for choosing such a lovely photo of me to use on the thumbnail. 🤣

It's that time of year - get out and smell the flowers like Beany Buddy. 🫘🌹 (And yes, have officially decided on the name now. And starting the #BeanDay series of his adventures. Or should we call it #BeanYay ?)

PS Did you know bean and other pulse plants also have gorgeous flowers that come in many colors?

I think I'll have to name this adorable bean Beanie Baby. 🫘😍 Open to other suggestions though, because choosing a good name is important.

I'm confident we can all agree that we need bean stuffed animals in our lives. Thank you for an awesome surprise that 💯 made my day, @being_bratter! ❤️ @usdrybeans

@jellycat 👏 👏
