Flea Market Amazement, and Spring Outlook

So today was our third Sunday at the Rutland flea market, and a prayer partner is showing up each morning to say hi. The first day, he bought a tea and said to share it with others, and left us a tip. Last Sunday, he gave us a gift to …

Fir and Curly Dock Chocolate Chip Cookies

Not all recipe adaptations work out.  An attempt at replacing corn flour with curly dock seed in a gnochi recipe, failed to hold the dough together after the 6 hour rest period.  Considering all the original recipe was, was a cup of flour, a cup of corn flour, a pinch …

Fir and Curly Dock Cupcakes

So when I’m not planning advanced foraging workshops or signing up for craft or wellness fairs, apparently I am baking! Ashley wanted to know what a lemon loaf might taste like if we used Douglas Fir instead of lemon. The recipe in the Good Housekeeping Cookbook calls for eggs, and …

So I began my curly dock “bread” experiments this weekend, on Friday. Some out there skip the toasting step and go straight to the blender step because as one lady put it, “they’ve already dried on the stalk, no need to dry them further”. I decided to test that theory. …
