Dandelions Forever


I'm sure you're all familiar with the Year of the Tiger, the Pig, the Rat, etc. I am thoroughly convinced that this is the Year of the Dandelion. The sunny little weeds are everywhere, telling us Spring is here. Even the people with immaculate lawns have a few of these colorful invaders. They aren't good for much, unless you like dandelion wine or dandelion greens and they are really quite cheery. When I was a kid, we would hold one under a friend's chin and if a yellow reflection appeared (which it always did), we announced that he liked butter. Well, who doesn't?
