   1                    ham bone -- (with small amount ham still on)
   2      cups          navy beans or mixed beans
   8      cups          water
   1      clove         garlic -- minced 
   1      tablespoon    lemon juice
   1      tablespoon    honey
   1                    bay leaf
   1      large         onion -- chopped
                        salt & pepper -- to taste

Preparation:

Wash beans. Put everything in crock pot along with ham bone (that has small amount of ham still on). Start cooking at high (I usually start it in the evening) and after it starts cooking, turn to simmer. (I cook it all night and until serving time at noon or even later.) I usually remove the bone in the early morning and add more water. Remove bay leaf before serving.
