I value anything that grows without my care and is food; I'll transplant some "weeds" to the farm; many of them were brought from Europe because of their utility.

Foraged plantain from the park nearby; like honey mushrooms, few people know its use.

I'm assuming generic long pig.

Bad news: doesn't taste that good; good news: doesn't seem to taste like anybody.

I knew it would come to this, and this is where to note it; in the local Grossout (Grocery Outlet) there was SOYLENT! Granted, it's not green, being strawberry. I look forward to brekkie tomorrow.

Yes, I'm relieved to have a responsible adult in the White House.

S'pose I should take the covid more seriously, being 76, with a cardio condition and A+ blood, but I'm willing to let essential workers get their vaccine before me; I don't deal with people much, while they have to, and I appreciate them showing up for work.
Now that Agent Orange is not in charge of the failure to deal with the problem, maybe we can moderate our stunning fatality rate.

You should see 4-6 of them WALLOWING in cardoon flowers, they love them so.

Very sparse snow on the peaks; there was another 0.1" of rain, bringing the season total to a whopping 0.7". Think I'm dying here.

Another 10bs of Armillaria; left ~4lbs 'cause the bag was full and a clump that will be good-sized in 2 days; spread most of the early batch around to my clients; wish I still had a big dehydrator, also so I could process a glut of hachiya persimmons 'stead of leaving them to the cedar waxwings and robins; oh, well; wish in one hand ...

Got sixers of celery and another kale; I don't much like buying transplants, 'cause they cost as much as a seed packet, but this is such a late start.
Found a bouquet of Armillaria melea, honey mushrooms, about 5 pounds; later found a patch with about 8 bouquets in various stages of development, another ~4 lbs; the youngest will be fit to harvest in 1-2 days, another 5-6 lbs; these would go for $12-15/lb; so in the range of a $180-245 score; I'll simmer them with nothing added, cool, ziploc, and freeze. Damn! Smug attack.
Wow, it just started raining hard 12:15PM; didn't see that coming; very welcome, though.

Hopefully, Jupiter Pluvius agrees with you.
I've got various onions to put in and today picked up six-paks of four kales and lettuce.
