Spring? Damn cold out right now. I don't care what anyone says, it is Spring when it is warm enough to walk in shorts, but cool enough to wear a sweater.

Either way, I am looking forward to a Spring hike up in the Adirondacks.

[Jwheelz]

went out into a nearby state park and spent some time in nature the other day... that was a good time... hoping the warm weather comes back soon

[Mr Bo Berry]

Love being able to open the windows again.

[Lostsailr]

burning a fire in the wood stove right now, but later I think walking and "Walkin' the dog" might be in order so I agree with everyone pretty much

[Occifer Boland]

... That moment when you realize you went outside at 10:30am to check on something.. Then, you realize it's 5pm... You cancel your dinner plans and fire up the grill...

[TakeAStepBack]

What's the recipe? That actually sounds good. Never tried them. Are they ramps, or wild leeks?

[TakeAStepBack]

Ramps

[TakeAStepBack]

Wild leeks

[TakeAStepBack]

[MeOmYo]

Ramps, wild leeks, same thing.

I use the recipe for canning onions out of the ball blue book. From memory something like

4 quarts of ramps
2 quarts vinegar
2 cups sugar
1 cup of salt
1/4 cup mustard seed
7 bay leaves
Hot peppers

I have a patch behind the house that is pretty big but yesyerday i went to a friends parents and must have 3 plus acres of them.

[MeOmYo]

I know of 6 or 7 patches around here and all are eastern facing hardwood slopes. Not sure what the relationship is but that is where they are around here.

[TakeAStepBack]

WOW. That is a big lot of wild leeks. (the above is an old joke. We used to call them wild leeks until we picked them,. After that they were called ramps.)

[Mama Kel]

Get ready to swim by playing in the rivers, but not quite ready to get in!
