Dandelions feed the first bees and also the bunnies. I know people consider them weeds, but they’re not. They are food for creatures that are hungry after winter. They are bright, joyful indicators of spring, and I’ve heard you can make delicious wine from the flowers. The greens are very healthy to eat, as they cleanse the liver.
When the dandelion petals turn to fuzz and their seeds can be dispersed easily, this is where most people have a problem with them in their yard, but I’ve always liked to make a wish and blow the seeds wherever they may go. I’m hoping one day my wishes come true.
I’m not the only one.
“It's Amy,” I said. 
I often drink roasted dandelion tea before bed. Helps dreaming. 🙂

OK, you’ve given me a reason to try attitude adjustment. I was just outside and SO happy to see yellow daffodils, but had opposite feelings re: yellow dandelions. (same color, go figure? I definitely see them ONLY as weeds, but you’re right – they ARE cool.

Well, you know what they say: weeds are just flowers planted in the wrong spot. 😊
