Sadly, not the last “Dandy” we will see.

One warm week in the winter and those little fuckers will spring up everywhere. I wish it wasn't the norm to have to kill them. 1) they are impossible to stop, and 2) they are edible (you can also make tea). People should give up and just have dandelion lawns. If shit hits the fan, people can harvest their lawn.

My grandmother (born 1894) would pick a shopping bag of dandelions, take them home, clean them and cook them with a chunk of salt pork. Pour a little cider vinegar on them and ... Delicious! I remember her picking them into her 70s until she wasn't flexible enough to do it anymore.

Ever heard of dandelion wine (commonsensehome.com)?
There was a story from way before my time, about my grandmother, who never drank, was convinced to try some dandelion wine at a church event. So she did, apparently more than one glass. She got flushed and light headed, so my grandfather had to bring her home. My folks always had a good laugh every time that story came up because my grandmother never drank.
