Where did the year go?? Every year, it mystifies me. 2022 has been full of bean blessings (yes, that’s a thing), and I truly couldn’t be more grateful. To celebrate, here is a little collection of some adorable/lovely/delightful/strange (not sure which word to use here) bean graphics I made this holiday season. I hope they bring a smile!
Black-Eyed Peas and New Year
A rare sighting of a black-eyed pea celebrating the New Year. Ready for some fun facts about black-eyed peas? Here you go! And here’s a video where I got to share about how awesome black-eyed peas are on the news.

Happy Holidays – Bean Style
As you know, beans are incredibly versatile and come in all shapes, colors, and sizes. But, did you know they also come in all different holiday characters?

If you celebrate Christmas, maybe you’re looking for ideas for your tree next year. Well! Forget popcorn, berries, ornaments, and tinsel, and bring on the beans! To be honest, I do actually really want this tree topper. If anyone is artistically talented and thinks they could make this, please let me know!

Thank You for a Great 2022
A sincere, heartfelt thank you to everyone who has been following along on my bean-y adventures. Wishing you all the very best in 2023! May it be a year of joy, health, and – of course – lots of beans!!
Rather than trying to summarize the year in words, I will share this photo compilation that shares some of the highlights from 2022. From adventures in the field to the kitchen, to traveling to connect about beans with colleagues, this year was a dream come true.
