On Tuesday, Serenity and I (mom) picked up acorns. Why?, you ask. Because in,reading a book that identifies edible native plants and trees of Texas, we learned that native Indians used acorns to dye their clothing and to make flour that they could store and later make breads and sweet foods on which they could survive a winter. Acorns and mesquite beans (more on that later) were a staple of their diet. So if the natives could do it, Serenity and I thought we'd try our hand at it too. We found a recipe for Acorn Waffles, so we'll update on our progress with that later.
