I love Mary Jane Farm magazine. It is my favorite magazine to browse, absorb, keep, reread, and enjoy over and over. It has so much practical information in it.
This morning I got up at 6am, saw my husband off to work, then crawled back into bed under the warm covers with my Mary Jane Farm magazine. I was excited to see an article in her Simple Solutions about harvesting wild edibles. She gives a website called:
http://www.wildmanstevebrill.com/
This guy, who calls himself Wildman has lots of wonderful information on wild wonders. I was really excited to read about the Red Clover. I have a lot of it growing wild all around my place and I harvested it and dried it and tried some tea. It was really good with a litlle honey in it.

Red Clover Flower Head

Pour a cup of boiling water over handful of red clover flower heads, cover, and steep 20 minutes. Strain out the flowers and enjoy a tasty, healthful tea. You may also pick the flowers from the flower head and use them raw or cooked. They taste a little like sweet string beans.

My garden is about done as it's cold and the frost will be here any day.
MaryJane's magazine has inspired me to make some yogart today.
Mandy is riding her horse, Emily is working on a scrapbook, Isaac is putting together a poster on medievial warfare.
I've added some more websites to my favorite Webs so take a look.

I just had to add this picture of me in the bucket truck, I took a picture of our place from here.

The pasture where we keep our horses.
