Snow yesterday and dandelion today - what's wrong?
When I was a child, each season had its own characteristics, which were always the same. When it was spring, the flowers were blooming, the grass was green, the mornings and evenings were cold and the days were warm. When it was summer, the days and nights were very warm, the fruits and vegetables were ripe, we weared summer clothes and summer rain fell sometimes. When it was autumn, you could see beautiful scenes of autumn fallen leaves everywhere, it was cold and was often rained. When it was winter it was snowing, the trees were without leaves, the grass did not grow, there were no flowers and it was very cold.
Today, not everything is exactly as it used to be in my country. It's not cold. Itβs actually too warm for this time of year. I feel like it's already spring, and winter has just begun. It was snowing almost until yesterday and today there is a lot of green grass and dandelions in front of my building.
I see dandelion for the first time in January and I am quite surprised, but also worried. When I see something that is not natural, I wonder where it leads and what the consequences will be.
Great climate change is happening in my country. Something that used to be extreme is now becoming normal. This is, for example, a temperature over 40 degrees during the summer and temperature over 20 degrees during the winter. I don't think too much about global warming, but when I ask myself for a moment, I realize that the weather has become very uncertain and unpredictable.
Anyway, I have to admit it was nice to see the dandelion. Did you know that dandelion juice is very tasty and healthy? The juice cleanses blood vessels, regulates digestion and strengthens the body. You can make it easily.
Boil dandelion flowers in water.
Add lemon juice.
Cover the dish with gauze.
After 24 hours add sugar or honey.
Then strain the juice.
Cook the juice, but not too much.
Pour it into well-washed bottles and close it.
Store in a cool and dark place.
And drink every day. π
You will enjoy the taste and you will feel powerful.
You can also use this juice to make smoothies. You can add any fruits, pineapples, apples, oranges, lemon, whatever you like. My choice is dandelion, pineapple, apple, ginger. An explosion of taste.
Have you ever wondered how can a dandelion turn from a beautiful yellow flower into a white puffballs that the wind blows away? Life is one big cycle. When something dies, something new begins to be born. Dandelion is initially yellow as the sun. Then it closes and opens up completely differently. Many of those blown up puffballs will turn into new dandelions and the life cycle continues. Blowing will also make your wishes come true if you want to be a child again. π As dandelion changes, so does everything else in nature and life, and it remains for us to accept the changes and live in accordance with them.
