Hey dilly, dilly.



A dill weed has spread its green bursts in our front yard. I went out one morning to peel the sprigs off the stalks and shake the seeds off the ends. The tangy scent stuck to my fingers and filled the air, like the dried dill I'm used to but with a fresher edge, almost intoxicating in its intensity. I gathered my bounty in the early light.
