dandelion fritters ***

 **The fritters was truly an experiment.  We took this class on edible wild plants.  These were described as tasting like mini-donuts and one of the few recipes the teacher's kid liked. These weren't bad.  Surprisingly, my 9 year old liked them and my husband wouldn't try them.  If you try this, make sure the dandelions come from someplace that hasn't been sprayed with toxins.  I recommend picking small flowers.  I used a pancake batter from the 1950 Betty Crocker cookbook.
