It wouldn't be a Tew Family Reunion without the hopeful mention of Grandma's Pickled Beans turning up somewhere on the table (SOOO GOOD)! Because she loves us so much she is sharing her secret recipe with us...okay, so it's not really a secret recipe but she still loves us and is sharing! Thank You Grandma! And it's probably safe to confess now to eating your jar of pickled beans with Grandpa at the Christensen Family Reunion before it was time to eat...;-) They were delicious!

A jar of Grandma's Pickled Beans along with her recipe proudly displayed in our kitchen.
