And I do. I am never bored by this enchanting act, and in its simplicity, I have faith in the fruition of each wish…

The golden dandelion has endured for centuries. It was originally brought to the Colonies by the English – intentionally – for its medicinal and culinary use. There was a time when grass was cleared for this honored migrant, but now the opposite is true. Dandelions have been used all over the world in a plethora of remedies and recipes, and have only recently been dismissed as a weed.
