Sorry to hear about your family contacting the virus. That sucks. I hope you don't contact it as well.

I've never tried to eat dandelions from the garden but I have had dandelion tea bought from the store though. I heard that it cleanses the liver. I dont know if thats true or not but it tastes alright. Its a natural dieretic as well so keep that in mind. It can dehydrate you if you drink too much. I always thought that you had to boil nettles for a short time in order to de-sting them. I didnt know that you could press them to do it. Thats interesting. I still have to try nettles. There are a million in our yard. I could probably live off them if I had to.

Great post. I'm intrigued by the deep fried dandelion flowers.
