Today's nature tip
While you're drinking under the Cherry Trees, notice that there's food growing free on hillsides and creek banks, TSUKUSHI (young shoots of field horsetails). How to eat...wash, parboil, drain and squeeze off any excess water, and mix with sesame and miso paste. This recipe is good enough that even if plants that are not necessarily edible can get mixed in, but still taste palatable. Refer to

Stage 2 to 4 are fine to eat.
