"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks

Oh man, lucky lucky you!

Just got home from another book sale, my mom and I have hit two in the last couple of weeks...yay books!!!!
My honey, my mom, and I were invited to a picnic lunch at our neighbors house (we gave them our old picnic table and they wanted to say thanks)...they made portobello sandwiches with a fresh herb aioli, fresh greens with a lime dressing, and chunked up fresh pineapple/papaya/strawberries for dessert...it was amazing!
I'm not sure what kind of fiddleheads they are or which kinds are edible, so I just left them there. Pretty, though. We had the morels with penne and broccoli. Plenty of garlic, a little red pepper, mmmmmm.
And the season's just starting. Rain on Tuesday should really bring them out.![]()

Oh, wow.
So I pulled out my old, neglected edible wild plants book.
I'm still not sure what kind of fiddleheads they are. But guess what I found folded up between the pages?
The cue sheet I'd made for my very first bicycle tour, June, 1982.
Could I actually have brought that book on that tour?I don't remember, but it's definitely possible. Speaking of the other thread... I brought the heaviest stuff imaginable with me, so books were probably on the list.
Anyway, an unexpected blast from the past!
