Sunflowers!

One of my favourite plants—big, bright and in your face (or towering over you). Sunflowers celebrate life and encourage me to do the same. I love harvesting their over-heavy heads full of seeds. We roast them in the toaster oven and feast. Here's a pro tip: if you wait until the seeds are hot to salt them, the salt will stick to the seeds' oils, which are released by the heat. Super pro tip: try Hy's seasoning salt. (I put that #$*% on everything.)
