So I've been spending the last few monthes reading, watching, walking, and just overall researching foraging safely and the types of plants in my area. Today was the first day with my spouse and son that I was able to identify some plants confidently... so of course with my direction we began foraging.

It saddens me that one of the main motivators for foraging today is knowing that my neighbors and my mother in law would be getting their lawns mowed soon and most of what I gathered today would've been lost. People just don't know what they have.

We pay to remove plants, herbs and even fruits growing naturally in our lawns, only to go buy the same plants from our grocery stores.

Plants found:

Dandelion: the whole plant is edible if you can spot it from its copycat. The leaves can be used the same way as most greens, it's roots when dried can be used to brew Dandelion coffee, and the flowers can be used for tea and to make honey

Chives and Onions: a common herb and garnish its stalks grow back once cut. If left to grow long enough they absorb nutrients better and can produce bigger onions but for now these chives were found before being mowed over and the onions are quite small but very strong and flavorful

Dead nettle: this one was new to me learning about it near the end of winter and seeing the small purple flowers growing. The flowers and leaves droop downward almost making a closed umbrella shape. It can be eaten raw or cooked and is used in salads and smoothies for garnish and flavor. They are high in nutrients and vitamins. Left to grow in the sun the purple turns almost pinkish and the leaves get lighter but still useful

Pine (cones, needles and seeds): I didn't forage the cones or needles today cause I knew I'd be busy, but baby pinecones can be cooked and eaten and the needles when cleaned and placed into an airtight container with water and sugar make a soda. I managed to find a few seeds in some of the fallen cones and saved them to plants in our future home

That's what we foraged. We are waiting for some more plants to develop and managed to convince my mother in law to leave certain sections of the lawn left uncut as some plants are still just starting back. Plants were waiting on are plantains, honeysuckle, and violets. Some plants are still too early to identify.

Using the dandelion greens tonight and making a pesto with some of them combined with the dead nettle and onions to use for a future pasta.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Baby Phat Fall Fashion 2002 .ೃ࿐

For the Baby Phat Fall 2002 collection, Kimora ( the beauty and brains behind the brand ) drew inspiration from traditional East Asian culture, such as Chinese, Japanese & Korean aesthetics and combined it with the beloved streetwear and fashionable evening wear the brand was known for.

The fall collection featured elaborate embroidery, silks, dragon motifs, florals— and played with red, gold and black color patterns that evoked both a fabulously ‘ exotic ‘ yet luxurious feel. I won’t even mention the earthshaking faux fur and denim looks I had to leave off this post. I would literally do anything to get that silk blue kimono-inspired top today. Anything ! — [ xxx ]

This is a reminder that, like sex, you should hydrate and eat something after spell casting

W&S4

Did a redesign of my version of Emily since I was inspired by Wildnorwester’s interpretation of her, her design is totally based off of 実験体@jittaiken5 from Twitter but with some minor changes and of course I gave her capes cause she is the W&S main passenger/express engine much to Adam’s chargin so let her have a cape like Gordon, plus alt livery 😉
