Wild Garlic

Neville

Wild Garlic

 

I love

wild garlic time

of year ..

I love the taste

and smell of it ..

I love

The sound

of the stream

that feeds

and nurtures it ..

I love

wild garlic

as a garnish,

in salads

and in stews ..

Or whisked into

a green

and creamy two

goose egg omelette ..

    Nothing quite like freedom of choice my friend. 😊👍

    • Neville



      its a bit like our so called freedom to roam act .. it sounds good and would be good, but just try putting it into practice .. ☚ī¸đŸ‘

      Gives me a sort of hot flush - maybe swoon - if I have too much of it! KP adds 10 cloves of it to my every evening meal when she cooks. lol.

      • Neville



        I think maybe you are confusing the effects of wild garlic with rumpy pumpy

        • orchidee

          KP's a vampire now - no reflection in the mirror. It's better for us both - she's looked in 7,436 mirrors and they all broke, as they couldn't bear the sight of her! lol.

            Foraging is good.

              it is certainly cheaper & healthier than forking out for hyped up supermarket prices .. cheers

              Nature gives us such simple pleasures, growing in our own backyards. Add your wild garlic to some dandelion greens and voila! There's also nothing like catching the smell of wild garlic as you mow the lawn. That omlette sounds delicious, as is this poem is my friend.

                It is so good to have you back Bella (actually that was an understatement) .. (note to self slow down Nev, don't be in such a bloomin rush) .. deep breath, short pause .... and again .. It is great to have you back Bella not only that, but an honour you should visit .. Neville

                • Bella Shepard

                  It is my privilege and pleasure to visit. Life has become so busy of late that when the end of the day comes, I wonder where it went. I have a lot of catching up to do my friend, and looking forward to it. Take good care!

                  Great use of the senses. I wouldn't be without garlic. Tremendous work.

                      I swear I could feel something .. maybe it was my thank you forming ... Neville
