Esther Morse, Colorado Springs, CO.

“Several years ago, my girlfriend and I decided to form a Girl Scout troop for our daughters, Amanda and Elizabeth. After taking the camp training, we packed up and hauled our troop, of about 8 girls, on a camping trip. While on a short hike, Carol and I noticed wild onions growing; what a great addition to our dinner of goulash! Pick! Pick! Pick! After a couple hundred feet or so... wild daffodils! What a great addition to our base housing gardens! Pick! Pick! Pick!

Upon arriving back at the campsite, Carol laid down because of a severe headache, and I was left in charge! “Okay, Girls, peel those wild onions, slice ‘em up, and let’s get them sauteeing in butter”...mmm mmm mmm!

Carol reappeared just as the goulash was being served up. As she groggily came over to the picnic bench / cooking area, she held up some plants and said, “I thought you were going to put these onions in the goulash?”
Well, I’ve read that daffodils are some of the un-edible flowers... guess we were just lucky!”
