dried cowpeas

Took down the vines the other day. Got a few more dried pods I hadn't noticed before

It was a good amount of cowpeas (black-eyed peas) this year, in spite of my neglect 

My little jar is half filled, enough to make a few decent soups I think I still have yet to try them! 

Always find it amusing to see the tiny, undeveloped beans in a few pods- here with two regular-sized ones.
