Woman-owned green beans won't string you along, But if you're a man, it’s likely you're wrong. Woman-owned green beans, our virtues extole, Hand-picked from the bush, eschewing the pole. Woman-owned green beans for the man of the hour, We’d best make that two, they still need a shower. Woman-owned green beans are never on sale, ‘Cuz working for less is beyond the pale.
---------- got a chuckle out of this label at the store...

We’re probably more the pintos… man-owned pintos, don’t mean to be crass…

Jeff, your words resonate with the joy of women and beans, and your depictions are beautiful.
