You mean the unsprayed dandelions in my yard?


My momma taught me that they make fine salad additions, and a blood purifier, and the other kids showed me how to make curls out of the flower stems, with my tongue.

Dandelion coffee, made from the roasted seeds (roots?), is good. So are dandelion 'honey' and wine.

Dandelions and other seeds that hadn't seen the light of day for fifty years, sprung up where the houses had been bombed in WWII Britain.

I have a huge dandelion growing on a sharp slope where no self-respecting dog or cat would/COULD ever pee. This is its 3rd year of blooming and I am eyeing it for both salads and drying the root...living food.

A neighbor showed me how to make a poultice from plantain leaves.

And then there is parsley; mints; basil; and, heaven forbid, cilantro! And, Russian Olives growing along the roadsides. And, pine needles.

Oh my, should we all be investing in asbestos suits?

And, how are you fixed for visitors, R.G.?

Then there is laughter!

And the demand side of the market!
