i walked past mum today she asked me what i was eating, it was wild mint that grows in our river, nothing better its so refreshing.
the sorrels out (again with the spelling stormy), its goes well in salads, best use the youngest of leaves, we have the small vairity. phil eats it fresh, but then he is weird. we also like bread and cheese. now i wonder how may people cant tell me what plant i am talking about..dazza?
my dad once, went into the pub and asked for a sarnie, they said no, so he ate all the daffs flowers outside, it was so funny, all these flower less stalks standing up, yes you can eat the flowers but dont eat anything else.
oh and dandilions leaves taste just as nice as lettuce, having marmite and dandilion leaves in a sarnie is a favorite of mine.
;D

Been away for easter or I'd a got that! Do I get the wooden spoon prize if I tell you why it's called bread and cheeze?
Ramsons and Jack-by-the hedge are all out now too and a great seasonal treat! Both go really well in peanut butter sarnies!
