Recently I have started exploring my local woods and parks for herbs and leaves to use for teas and cooking. Today I found Three Cornered Leek and some wild garlic growing right next to it ! I love running around with my little plant identifier app and becoming more and more able to identify all the edible ( and terribly not edible) plants growing around me each day. I pop on my little foraging playlist that makes me feel like a wizard and I skip home with my baggie full of leaves:)
This is the wild garlic I found today
I have a mental map of where the rosemary bushes are and I love to take a walk with a plastic bag to grab a little and walk back home like rapunzel eating from the forbidden garden
It is good I feel to keep playful expressions of frustration such as this in my arsenal. Sometimes i'll throw in a ' goodness me!' or a simple ' lord!' does the trick also. Something very Charlie Brown about it
And recording your findings in a little dedicated notebook!
Just went on a quest to find the best way to incorporate thyme into a lemon and blueberry cheesecake, and wrote down my findings in detail . Life is good
