Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m trying something new today! Although I‘ve known burdock a long time, I finally took the time to dig up some roots.

I‘ve perused this book multiple times over the last few years without reviewing it. I haven‘t compared it carefully to other references, but I find it to be a useful book. It doesn‘t include recipes other than some basic suggestions, but it seems a good starting point for identification and ideas.

New book! I‘ve always known and eaten some wild edible plants, but it‘s a topic I would like to explore more. Tonight‘s salad included mostly spring greens I‘ve had before, but I was able to add one more from my reading.

The ever delightful @cobwebmoth got me this awesome book about finding and identifying edible plants in the Midwest. Now I'm really ready for Spring! I love hiking and finding food in nature. This will certainly help me not poison myself. The recipe for catnip, lavender, lemon iced tea sounds wonderful. I can't wait for it to grow back in the flowerbed.
