Foraging for food

Purple beans with green interiors!!! How unbelievably cool is that? While they ultimately turned green when heated, the slicing/dicing was so much fun. And the resulting flavor, superb.
Fresh mixed greens from the garden. Red spinach with far more vitamin C than the common green variety, rainbow chard, marigolds, tomatillos, tomatoes, nasturtiums, romaine, pansies and violas. Freshly transplanted sunflowers and a crow hoping for a handout. I had our old rocking chairs painted to blend with the bocce balls. And the other more muted vegetable colors.
Dinners these days could not be easier/something basic (fish, grass-fed beef, chicken) on top of the mix of greens. Get those gardens growing, friends. In a box or a bag. A wagon or wheelbarrow. You won't be sorry.
