It's been dry for the last several weeks, and unseasonably hot, with just some drizzle coming finally this morning. We are experiencing what they call a high-moderate drought. So I did not think we would get any puffballs this year. Or at least nothing worth trying to eat. But I got lucky and came across these while doing my daily hike. I just wanted to demonstrate a quick way to fry and eat these that I like to do.

I was performing my daily anti-flab hiking, and decided to film cooking some milkweed. As usual, cheap phone with a crappy camera. My bad.

Always Be SAFE And Sure Of What You Forage!

We find Yellow Wood Sorrel and Spiny Thistle.
Spiny Thistle is incredibly useful and sorrel has to be eaten in small quantities.

Help me stay focused by asking me questions and letting me know you're here.

I had a plethora of wild violets in my backyard that I didn't want to mow down, so I put them to use instead! It turns out that there's quite a few things that can be done with violets (come visit the blog, link below!), so there will need to be a part two next year! For now, I give you the five things I did with my wild violets.
