Golden Salad Days

It would appear that there is at least one plant that i can grow without to much trouble.. dandelions.. i have a field that is just covered in them...nearly 3 acres of dandelions. How the hell am i going to eat that many salads? My skin will turn yellow and i will forever be spending my day going to the toilet as they are a diuretic at least i will have healthy kidneys though. Has anyone ever died from an overdose of dandelion salad? If you just walk through the field your clothes turn yellow from the pollen and the bees just seem to love them as well.
It will be good food for the horses which return from their winter quarters at the weekend and i have no doubt that they will waste no time in reducing these golden discs to usable compost!
Next job for the peasant is to build a very small wall on the terrace, should be interesting as i have never built a wall before so i trust it will all go to plan once i have worked out what quantities of sand to mix with the cement and how much water to slosh in with it to make into a mortar type substance..will keep you updated...bit like being a kid again and making mud pies..oh, you never did that? don't suppose you ate worms or played with the coal either?
