Sumac Lemonade

Liz, the contessa of all things folkloric (I'm not sure if that's a word, but you know what I mean), walked through the woods today and pointed out to me many things I did not know. Like Jack in the Pulpit. It is one of her favorites and she found a giant one, seen here.

She also pointed out May Apples, which I've never known. She said that they get a small lemon colored fruit on them, which deer love, but people can also eat.

Then, and this is exciting, there's sumac. Not poison sumac. Sumar, that apparently can be made into lemonade.

Liz knows everything.
