Taking The Time To Smell The Roses

Today I've felt so lazy, for no reason I could figure out. I've been almost completely unproductive, but a little while ago I did mange to get myself outside to harvest some wild edibles. 


The wild roses are in bloom, and I'm lucky at my parents house, there is a large patch growing at the side of the driveway and the road. So I collected a basketful earlier today. 


I've got them drying now, to store for later and make some yummy tea now. Later on in the season, the rose hips make a great food source, however the flowers make a lovely fragrant cuppa as well. And they're oh so pretty...
