Ramps…

Just a note from the hills of WV.  Jonn will not likely get any of this since he’s a carpet-bagger.

But this time of year two thing light up MY life.

The first is the humble ramp. This is a simple sort of flora that will clear your head. Consider every non-pepper spicy thing you’ve ever eaten, then add The Ramp. I dunno if  it’s just a local thing, but I do know that over several decades here  only a very few non-hillbillies knew the name.

Earlier today I was enjoying the scent of the wild onion. The Ramp is simply indescribable to the uninitiated.

Then there’s The Morell.  Poems have been written about this one.

So, spring means something here on my geezer ridge.

YMMV

A few ramps and a few Morels in a skillet with a bit of real butter will change your life. If you can find them?
