what about rubbing cucumber over a tasty weed

**egyptiandan64** · 15-01-2007, 07:17 PM

Good idea Linda

I'd even go so far as to make a salad with cucumbers and weeds. I've found winter or butternut squash to be a big hit here and it has lots of vitamin A. I cook mine, but you can grate it into the salad too.

ok guys great idea will try cucumber, grass, dandelion salad in the morning. bit too dark to search for dandelions now.

although may try grass and cucumber salad in a minute

I know i'm only newbie but Oscar wouldn't eat for nearly a week and i just kept bathing him and putting fresh food in and eventually he ate, now he eats like a right little monster

I hope Lily starts eating too...
