    New insulation idea!

    I've been working all afternoon collecting my new insulation! It has the lightness of down, but WAY less expensive! So far I have about a bushel, but there is a lot more to be had, dandelion seed heads are everywhere!

    I'm always interested in dual-usage. Can you make dandelion wine from this and not have to pack it back out?

    I never drink water. I'm afraid it will become habit-forming.

    I wouldn't call this "new" lol. It was probably used as bedding thousands of years ago. Or by some toked up twenty something in the sixties.
