Ramps (& chickweed) pesto #nofoodwaste
I bought too many ramps and too much chickweed a few weekends ago, so made it into pesto! (Yes, I cannot believe I pay for chickweed. It was a pest in my NC garden.) #cityslicker

gustin 9yr Curious what you pay for chickweed? I have literally acres of it that grows wild, makes a great ground cover -
MargaretG 9yr @gustin the farmer john gorzynski charges about 3$ per bunch for all his greens. If you are near NYC on a Saturday morning, it would be worth it to see what he does. He sells things that lots of people consider weeds but that have been used in many different cuisines or for medicinal uses (like mugwort)

Pay it forward today.
Not sure if it's just me, but I'm feeling a lot of stress in people around me. So, today, instead of adding to it when someone random stressed at me in traffic, I decided to change the trajectory ...
