When students from Linfield University in McMinnville, Oregon, cleared invasive Himalayan blackberry from a meadow on campus, a bank of camas seeds sprouted. "The university found itself with a thriving patch of Indigenous first foods," says @Toastie. For High Country News, they write about how this discovery birthed a festival, the Linfield Camas Festival. The one-day event is devoted to the wildflower, its place in Indigenous cuisine, culture and ecosystems, and educating others about food sovereignty and more.
I made homemade rose petal jelly yesterday and it is BEYOND delicious! So proud how well it turned out, everything from the color to the petals still inside looks so pretty...
New to our family, sandwich rolls: lavash, mayo, lettuce, prosciutto, havarti cheese. I am trying to find foods Drew can eat since he is not using his left hand very often. Regular sandwiches are a mess since he can’t tell the strength of his grip in his right hand. A firm hold means the sandwich filling falls out. Same for burgers now. Yay for Trader Joe’s lavash - only $2.49 for a large package. 2 pieces for 8 rolls. And it worked well. #Lavash#Food#Wraps#Sandwich
PS Anyone else having trouble finding food that a person with #Dementia or #Alzheimer can eat, feeding themselves? Since my son is losing more and more dexterity due to declining, he still wants his favorite foods in the way he has always had them yet he really can't deal with using his hands much at the same time he needs a special larger, round spoon to eat. About 1/2 of his meals the caregiver has to finish by feeding him.

It's easy to make. You can now buy the fried dough ("yow til") at 99Ranch, as well as the preserved duck eggs ("pei don"). Otherwise, you just need the long grained rice (boiled to a thick & smooth consistency which requires some practice to get right and some sliced green onions & sesame seed oil to top it off.
It's at the top of my list of Cantonese comfort food. Yum!!! 🤗
