Looking For A Little Weed!


  Easter is just a few days away. Most of us are
darn tired with temperatures more associated
with Winter than Spring.
  So I say it's time we all started looking for
a little weed!
  Now before you jump to conclusions I'm
not talking about the debate over legalizing
Cannabis.
  I'm talking about those little garden growths
that are just as certain a sign of Spring as any
of those beautiful flowers you can name.
  You see today, March 28th is "Weed Appreciation
Day!" I'll bet a lot of you haven't even bothered to
mark this day on your calender! And why not?!
  Probably it's because weeds get a bad rap!
  Some aren't really all that bad!
  Just think about the Dandelion! Kids play with
the stems and their yellow flowered heads. They
blow the fluff off after the blooms have closed
and turned into a cotton-like top.
   Some folks even use the Dandelion to make
wine! Others include it as part of salads.
   All that fun and food from a weed!
   You should start looking for a little weed
today. If they're starting to pop up around
your house stop and pay them some homage
today.
   If the weeds are here Spring and Summer
 can't be far behind!
   Hope you'll join in the celebration and that
all your NEWS is good!
