I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

no, the sorrell leaves are too large and leafy. The taste description is similar though.

I think sorrel can come in a lot of varieties. I've had wild sorrell and it's tiny.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You guys are weird, with the eating of the sorrell.

They're doing lawncare outside my bedroom window. I moved in here because there were screaming children in the courtyard.

On the upside, I'm getting work done.

On the downside, I am dead.

On the downside, I am dead.

Do you want to write a story about it?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

hmm, it could be French Sorrell, but the guy was marketing it under a different name, which isn't too unusual to do.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

"La Sorrell Fraiche du France" perhaps?

Could it be purslane, Nora? [link]

Sorrel leaves are flat like lettuce, but purslane is thicker.

It is totally purslane.

Ginger wins!
