Wild Violets #1

If you are fortunate enough to live among wild violets that aren’t sprayed with chemicals…you can have a lot of fun. :)

Make sure to gently wash and dry your flowers and/or leaves(Yes,you can eat the leaves too!). Violet flowers have a very mild, almost lettuce-like taste. I saw so many things that you could make with the violet plant—syrup, tea etc.—but I’ll just show you a couple of other easy and inspiring ideas(besides the one above)in two forthcoming posts.

I have been looking forward to this! :)
