Where the Wild Things Grow

There is more of this wild onion looking plant growing in the upper pasture than you would believe - smells HEAVENLY when you dig it up. I think you can smell it all the way to the barn! I've dug it up for our friend, Cris, and she's in love, too. Well, I harvested some to make a special meal for Lali - the boys helped. They l-o-v-e digging things up in the pasture. In fact, after we dug up this plant, Galen and I made many test digs looking for worms - I love the country, sigh. Well, I brought these into the house and lovingly cut them up, just waiting to go into that special dish. When Lajos came home he couldn't understand why our whole house REEKED of garlic smell...have I mentioned that Lali is allergic to garlic...gives him lovely GI pain, etc. I never cook with it anymore, so just didn't, ahem, recognize the smell. Well, they DO strongly resemble green onions...even Lali said so ;)! Here ya go, Cris - another bunch for you!
