Ooh! Yes! "There is a sixth sense – a sense beyond sight, sound, taste, touch and smell – and that sense is memory." I laughed at the ways in which potatoes could and could not be vegetables. This is wonderful. Thank you!

I don't know that I've ever had runner beans, but I've had courgettes and lots of other green beans. The recipe sounds delightful. I'm also relieved that you weren't forced to eat your vegetables; too often people torture kids with performative behaviors that they themselves could never do. My younger brothers are the same way, you couldn't have made a bargain that would get them to eat vegetables as children, now, they're vegans. Hah.

Thanks! I do remember not finding runner beans in the US - but also finding different ones and ones with different names, eg broad/fava beans.
