Thanks.

I’ll pass on the hemlock tea, though.

My neighbors have recently gotten into gardening and I keep pointing it out to them and saying “See this? DON’T TOUCH!!”

LOL do not ever pull nettles out of the garden without gloves...your hands will burn for hours...they have micro needles that hurt like the dickens and no way to remove them from the hands....I only did that once...Ouchy...foxglove is a beautiful flower, even deer won't eat them highly toxic but the base for lanoxin/digoxin a potent heart medicine. My girlfriend gave me a type of mum with very small flowers to be used to stop migraine headaches...I tried it on myself before giving a piece of the flower/plant to DIL. It stopped my headache. The name just came to me, its called feverfew, but there are 2 different kinds...rolled 3 leaves in a slice of bread. headache gone... just don't use weed killers or anything on the plants

I could roll around nekkid in a patch of poison ivy, no problem. Put me in the same county with nettles and I’m miserable!

Problem with Hemlock is it has a very aromatic, herbal scent to it. Some immigrant Asian gal in Tacoma last summer or the year before put it in her salad or stir fry, whatever... hope it tasted good.
Last salad she ever et.

grandma must have known which kind to use and how strong to make it...he lived a long life, married 4 times, a couple of those wives were real doozy’s..Last wife he kept was a drinker, guess he just got tired of getting married and quit with her....

Nah, it was Helen Dale Apple that lived across the street, the first girl that I ever kissed, and whom I never, ever will forget. Our first date was to go to a Magic Show at the Presbyterian Church, on a long, dusky, early summer evening..

But she moved away not soon after, before what would have been our freshman year in high school. My young innocent lad’s heart went with her, and never came back -—
