I'm imaging Christian's disgusted face as you ate those weeds and his knowing (maybe smug?) nod if you did get a belly ache. ;)

Fantastic! By the way, one of my former advisees who now works as a professional forager showed me a particularly egregious example of an AI-generated book on wild mushrooms that he purchased from Amazon to use as a cautionary prop. It was full of dangerous misinformation. These are now popping up all over the place, joining the many questionable gardening and foraging websites that the bots of churned out. Thank you for steering locals to a trusted teacher!

Yay weeds! Yay nipples! We had the nettle pizza at Lovely's this week and it was so delicious! Neither Robin or I have eaten them any other way we can recall. Your little hats are similar (no red sauce on the pizza and of course, cheese!)...any other suggestions for cooking with them?

Thanks for the mention Jonathan. Maple bud fritters are a goal (next year). In Italy they do acacia blossom and elderflower fritters.
