Spring is the season of renewal for flora and fauna.
      
     
               
Spring is the season of renewal for weeds, too. These weeds, however, are different: I eat them.
I have so many wild onions that if I could get rid of all of them the government might pay me a subsidy for not growing them--similar to the wheat subsidies that midwestern farmers receive.		      
               
     
Leona has decided to try her hand at growing orchids. This Phalaenopsis is doing nicely.
