Here in southwestern British Columbia, we keep having brief flurries of snow that melt in an hour or two. Yesterday, as Mother and I walked in the wild, big flakes were falling. She pointed at stubby, ruffly shoots not yet blanketed in white.
"It's almost time." "For?" I squinted. "Oh, you mean lasagne." "Right." Every year, to celebrate spring, we pick young nettles and layer them into a riccotta lasagne. Delicious. Heat kills the sting but not the flavor.
