Everyone went to the beach yesterday, sand and water providing endless fascination for the kids.

Asparagus officinalis, in the Lily family (note the tiny lily flowers) has been esteemed as a vegetable since ancient times, and is native to the steppes of Russia and Poland and elsewhere in Europe. It has always been an important herbal diuretic that stimulates the kidneys to eliminate stones and edema. The tiny yellow flowers will be followed by bright red little berries.
