Happy Tuesday!
Recently, science thoughts consume my life. From planning the science activities at my upcoming youth conference, the epistemology of science class every Tues/Thurs with Tim and experiments with Marci (of marci smiles). Last post, I shared with you my first discovery about Fake Science... here is the next in the series...
So this upcoming fall, don't go to the grocery store! Go nutrient searching on your front lawn! I would recommend washing your leaves first, as we all know trees are home to a number of species who poop where they live. Maybe your favorite oak is their bathroom? Who knows?
I have taken the liberty of thinking about what would compliment the leaf taste the best and have developed the first "leaf salad" made from ingredients all found in your neighborhood. Note: Dried leaves are also good as a snack for your child's lunch
4 c. of crunched up leaves (your choice)
1/3 c. diced twigs
1/2 c. little red berries
1/2 c. cubed crab apple cores
1 c. decomposing litter
2 tbsp. bark chips (topper-optional)
Dressing:
3 tbsp. growing soil
2 tsp. sand
Mix sand and soil with 1 c. water. Should be a paste like substance.
Enjoy!
