HI AGAIN KYH,
I GOT TO WONDERING WHAT KIND OF HEIRLOOMS YOU WERE INTERESTED IN AND JUST READ YOUR BIO AND FIRST ENTRY ON SPICE PLACE. WHAT AN INTERESTING THING TO TRY AND HELP PRESERVE THE HERITAGE OF LOCAL CROPS ETC. I OFTEN SPY PLANTS THAT GROW OUTSIDE THAT RESEMBLE FOR INSTANCE: WILD TURNIPS, OR MUSTARD GREENS AND AM ALLWAYS TEMPTED TO PICK AND COOK SOME
IT'S JUST THEY LOOK SO INVITING AND I JUST HAVE NEVER BEEN BRAVE ENOUGH (DON'T WANT TO POISION MYSELF). IS THERE NOT SOMETHING CALLED WILD PURSLANE? THAT IS EDIBLE? I AM VERY INTERESTED IN THIS CAN YOU HELP DIRECT ME WHERE TO BEGIN TO SEARCH? WE HAVE A MARVELOUS LIBRARY HERE IN ROME, GA AND I COULD PROBABLY CHECK OUT ANY BOOKS YOU MIGHT SUGGEST. WHEN I WAS A YOUNG WOMAN WE GARDENED EXTENSIVELY, AND I CANNED AND FROZE ALL OUR VEGGIES, AND JAMS, ETC. EVEN WON PRIZES AT THE COUNTY FAIR FOR MY CANNED GOODIES! THAT WAS MANY YRS. AGO, BUT I STILL LONG TO FIND A WAY TO EAT FRESH VEGGIES, AND WOULD THINK IT WONDERFUL IF I COULD JUST HARVEST OUT OF THE LOCAL WOODS!
THANK YOU, CCCATHY
PS: THE REASON I WAS WONDERING WHAT KIND OF HEIRLOOMS YOU WERE INTERESTED IN IS BECAUSE I FOUND AN ANTIQUE CHAIR LAST NIGHT! AND IT MADE ME START THINKING.....ANTIQUES ...HEIRLOOMS........KYHEIRLOOMER!
