Walking through Toronto, I happened upon patches of Dandelion’s.  I instantly thought of my Mother who used to harvest the weed, to eat them – they are good for your liver, she would say.

I started snapping pictures, of the pretty yellow flowers, remembering how pleased she would be to receive a bouquet of dandelions, and of the silvery white balls (the same plant ready to seed), which we would pick as children and blown on, scattering her seeds to the winds.
