Thanks for posting this, it was a great story I enjoyed reading.
I love that nature is so able to satisfy our 'greed monsters', and that you indulged yours in what seems to be a 'healthy' (and delicious) way!
I've had dandelion honey but haven't even heard of dandelion wine (until now). I believe I'd like to try it!
That said, if there's too much conflicting info about a recipe turning up when I google, I usually just skip the dish entirely, but I guess since I cook only a handful of times a year, I feel like a bit more certainty is nice, lol. Props to you for navigating the recipe-chaos out there.
OMG... cliffhanger! So psyched to find out what happens! Thanks for sharing :) 🙏
P.S. Interesting timing/sync as my post on How To Be Smarter yesterday talked quite a bit about Jordan Peterson.
I believe in creative license when it comes to recipes. That's when my witchy side kicks in. :D Sure it might spell disaster, but you don't know until you try. :D
I see you hustling the 'correct' way. I see you. Mad respect.
I guess I'm still naively waiting for something.. something to be different on the 'outside', even though I know better.
I scrolled through and see it is a long read.. as the best ones are.. I promise I'll read it, but for now, my upvote will have to suffice. :D

I totally agree, and in fact, encourage creative license. So far I've tended to spend more time on other artforms rather than cooking though.
I heard this quote somewhere and it always stuck with me. I imagine your 'creative spells' turn out quite well!
And thanks for the kind words. I think we've all had one (or many) 'wait for something external' phase(s), lol. Some people make it sound like they're "not good" phases, but often they're a necessary part of the journey. I believe anyone who has awareness about them is quite well-equipped to navigate. 😉
All good, everything in it's right time, and I greatly appreciate your upvote. Much appreciated and wishing you a joyful day! 🙏
