Fiddleheads and Sea Stars

Spring is finally, finally, really here in the Far North.  The first of the edible wild plants in my yard have made their appearance. Fiddleheads! 


Molly and I only picked a few, but it was enough for pizza.  This one is topped with fiddleheads, seasoned ground venison, sliced mushrooms, fresh basil and three cheeses. 


We've also had some great spring low tides (both kids are going on day long beach field trips tomorrow).  The sea stars seem limitless.




In other news, I seem completely unable to control Molly's hair.  Happy Monday!

    1. Jules, that was an exceptionally low tide. But you can usually find a lot of critters if you head out for the lowest tide of the month.

    1. Oops! Sorry I didn't see this in time. I think I used some soy sauce and oregano and garlic, but I'm sure almost anything would work. How did yours turn out?
