Nothing better to relax you after a stressful 11am to noon meeting than going out into the garden and ripping some weeds out. It's like nature's bubble wrap.
Weeds? Those are tea-and-coffee substitutes!

OK but unless one if the 17 benefits is "drugs you to wakefulness with caffeine" then it isn't exactly a coffee substitute is it?
I guess not 1:1, but it depends on what effect you're looking to substitute. Caffeine pills will do what you want, but remove the flavor of coffee.
You are more than welcome to come and harvest them from my lawn / garden lol. Just be sure to take the roots with you too.
Dandelions are beautiful and helpful for pollinators and bunnies. Don't buy into the Big Weedkiller propaganda.
I love dandelion salad! It's a lovely green!
Apparently you can even roast the roots and make some kind of coffee with them
Let's be clear: the lawncare industry needs you to destroy your lawn to exist. Removing "weeds" and tending grass in its stead is a billion dollar folly. Fuck lawns.
Without the picture I would have taken it a completely different way!
Oh!
As they say, them who laugh lasts, probably needed a minute to think about it. Today, that was me.
i think that was probably the joke
Ahh yes sorry, just had my lunch weed break.
Gotta be careful of that heat! Make sure to wear a big shady hat and have plenty of water when doing weed for lunch, the hottest part of the day!
Thanks for telling everyone you were not planning to deceive them.
