Purslane in Simpsonville

Last night as I surfed the net for information on composting, I came across this blog post on foraging. There were photos of the two "weeds" that have plagued us along our garden and driveway. I was shocked to discover that one of them is not only edible, but is commonly served in many countries, and used to be in America. My husband desires a manicured lawn and is not at all happy with the "Cease and Desist" I issued regarding this herb. He is not impressed with trendy "edible landscaping". So I intend to find out rather quickly whether it's a battle I want to fight, or if I should "give ground" on this one. This weekend I shall endeavor to make a few dishes featuring purslane. As well as start composting. Stay tuned . . .
