Our twins just turned four... weed soup party to celebrate: Doesn't that look good? And they gave their wild mother a generous portion, because more than anyone in the world they know how much she loves her wild greens. And no, we don't make play-soup, we make REAL soup, and eat it too! And if we make birthday cakes, we have them the fancy way -with dandelion flowers.
