Wish upon a Dandelion



~Dandelion~

When you see the first dandelion of the season, make a wish

Blow on a dandelion puff and make a wish. Then say:

"Dandelion, puffs away,Make my wish come true some day."

If all the "whiskers" are gone after the third puff, your wish will come true.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oopsie.. I didn't make any wishes after blowing my first dandelion in Prague.. But I hope all my wishes come true still! (haha greedy me...)

Saw the dandelions outside Prague airport when we arrived in Prague. Read and heard about stories on dandelions (aka pu gong ying).. and here am I! seeing and blowing dandelions! They are actually not flowers, but the seeds of the fertilized dandelion flower. It is actually called a dandelion clock (according to Wiki). The flowers are characteristically yellow, and guess what? There are several of the yellow flowers near campus village and give them a few more days.. I can blow dandelions everyday! Will make sure I plant some on the grass patch just outside my window! haha

It is said to be Northern hemisphere weed. And I always wonder why the weeds in Singapore are not as pretty... And it is also a spring weed! Only when the temperatures are about as high as 20dC do they start popping up everywhere... Oh it just makes my day seeing those dandelions... :) lala
