A quick plant walk in the woods.

Wood sorrel. A lovely tangy apple peel taste. Dont eat to much though.
primrose. A nice salad herb and boil up the older leaves too.
Eyebright. lots of medical uses.
Knapweed. seed heads are Good tinder and other uses too.
vetch!
a bit of a fire with pine cones and resin. The ground was very wet and it was raining heavily
a big dandilion root roasted up on the fire. Quite bitter even after and hour of roasting.
all washed down with a nice cup of tea.
