One of the most memorable interactions was Saturday. Into our booth strolls a small family, tempted by free samples of freshly brewed tea. We chatter and give them the spiel, that the tea is character merch and we’re a cozy health-based app called Forage Friends.

The young girl zeroes in on our pride pins.

“They have my pin!” She says excitedly. “They have my flag!”

The dad blinks. He is surprised, but also calm and positive when he sees it’s the lesbian flag. “Oh. That’s… different from what you told me.”

“That was months ago, dad.” And she rolls her eyes. Definitely a teenager.

I turn to him and say, “Yeah, dad.” And we share a little laugh about it.

He says, “No, it’s great. That’s amazing, honey. It was just news to me.”

“Well, I guess I just decided to stop lying to myself. About liking guys. Like right now.”

A little lesbian just came out to her dad and he was super cool about it.

I’m standing there in my tie-dye mask and my cheery blue apron pouring tea and making small talk and I’m trying really hard not to cry or compare it to my experience, the fire & brimstone, the disgust, the conditional acceptance as long as I never bring it up.

So as this beautiful bonding is going on, the girl’s even younger brother turns his gaze around. He’s in a snorlax hoodie and bored and wants to go look at the swords across the hall. But on the other side of our booth….

“WHY DO PEOPLE DRAW THAT?” He asks loudly, and we all turn to our neighboring booth.

Our neighbors were extremely lovely people. Every time we had a break we would talk, and we became good friends over the weekend. They kept apologizing that their booth was next to ours and we kept repeating that it was totally fine. Their booth was great. I even bought their merchandise.

The thing that was so contentious, that they felt the need to apologize for, was that they were selling explicit titty hentai stickers of popular characters. They were censored with little yellow R18 labels but the content was very clear.

So back to the family: I freeze and immediately go somewhere else to let dad handle this question. With adult customers I’ve been loud and positive about our neighbors. (“Man, how has it been boothing next to them?” It’s been great! They bring a lot of foot traffic and they’re kind and wonderful professional neighbors. If anything it’s a fun juxtaposition. We believe in artistic freedom. I bought a sticker too!)

But this is a kid, it’s not my place to explain anything…. But I was extremely curious about what this chill dad would say.

“Well,” dad says with a long measured silence between each word. “Sometimes people are horny.”

#IT WAS SO FUNNY #the kid was like GROSS #and dad was like its art :)#maybe one day you will feel that way too son #and he was like NO NEVER GROSS #and the dad was like you know what thats true :) not everyone feels that way #but maybe some day you will and you’ll see it’s totally fine and normal #A+ dad #dad of all time #dad champion #forage friends

No more ‘family asking me about my jobs or my social life or if I have a boyfriend’. Ask me about pokemon. Ask me about snakes. Ask me about local plant life. I promise it’s going to be a much more interesting conversation for everyone involved.

#‘what’s your career plan’ don’t know #‘how are your friends from high school doing’ don’t know #‘are you seeing anyone’ I know the answer to this one at least! no.#but I can tell you about foraging #we’re about to start seeing wood sorrel. by the way #we’ve got onion grass right now.#ramps should start showing up but they’re harder to find #and for the snake crowd. it’s almost DeKay's season.#I haven’t found one yet. but I will #this year is GOING TO be the year I find a hognose #I find dozens of dekays a year and a few rat snakes #found a couple kingsnakes and a worm snake once #and a few copperheads which are. less great to stumble upon lmao #but no hoggie. yet.#so no. I don’t have a job or a boyfriend. but I can find snakes within 30 minutes of being let loose outside #which feels more important honestly #I can also find four leaf clovers at an alarming speed. I found an 8 leaf clover once #and a bunch of 5-7 leaf ones #and again. that feels more important right now and I’d like family members to appreciate that instead. sad.

It’s Tell a Friend Friday!

Please enjoy this photo I took of my food dehydrator, which is full of sliced king bolete (Boletus edulis). I don't like the texture of the pores/gills, so I slice them as thin as I can, run them through the dehydrator til they're cracker-dry, and then through a coffee grinder to make a powder. It makes a great savory/umami base for soups and more!

Then tell someone you know about my work–you can reblog this post, or send it to someone you think may be interested in my natural history writing, classes, and tours. Here’s where I can be found online:

Hi I’m Krissy I’m working on a game called Forage Friends where it’s like Pokemon Go/Stardew Valley, you go for a walk and instead of hatching an egg you grow and plant things and unlock chapters of a visual novel!

If you wanna join and watch our development or have questions, our discord is here

The game is in development, hopefully beta this summer and complete game next year! So thanks for all your support!!!

#forage friends #we are also working on accesibility for wheelchair users #that post blew up i better make a new pinned

just realized this upon rewatch and i might be an idiot for not noticing sooner. van’s “therapy” was the only one we didn’t see at lottie’s, but we might have seen what it would’ve been. i think that the man getting buried alive in 2x01 was doing the “forage” treatment. with the parallels to their trauma (mainly shauna and the kid) it would make sense that the person who has had multiple near death experiences and was terminally ill would be “treated” by being buried alive. no wonder van got wasted instead.

#i may be way off here #or late to understanding #lottie did tell nat that the burial was one of many treatments they offer #and she showed the survivors that list of four options #we saw the other three through shauna tai and misty #so that leaves forage and live burial #poor van #just wanted to vibe at her video store and die in peace #instead she's expected to get buried alive by her former teammate/friend/prophet #van palmer #Yellowjackets

Trout Lily Omelette.

This spring plant grows in abundance, but their flowers take seven years to produce. I believe their name comes from the trout-like pattern. You can eat them raw, which I find causes a slight irritation to my throat and is a bit slimy in texture. They taste mildly sweet and contain mostly water, so I tend to add them in some simple recipes that you can just toss them into the mix.
