“Be Prepared . . .for Sensational News”

In the Disney film “The Lion King”, a villainous lion named Scar sings these lines:

Be prepared for the chance of a lifetime.

“Prepare for the chance of a lifetime” Dandelion Fritters. It is a Sturm Bros.’ family tradition to find a new recipe for a foragable food. This years adventure was dandelion fritters. A few helpful hints when making dandelion fritters: 1. pick dandelions free of herbicide. 2. wash thoroughly and dry thoroughly, use a salad spinner if available. 3. The blossoms taste a bit like squash, so these tend to be bland, season with salt liberally.
