Would you take a rather worn first paperback of Revenge of the Lawn instead?

When my daughter attended her sixth grade completion ceremony one of the teachers elected to read Oh the Places You'll go, cover to cover, while the kids and family members sat in the sun. It's a lovely book, but "overused" is an understatement.

And yes, #firstworldproblems - to the max. But honestly I've been enjoying having a bathtub-safe library that fits in my pocket and doesn't mean I have to add to my more-than-sufficient stack of dead trees on shelves.

Given that it's Maine, calling it a "mountain" seems like a lack of understanding as well.

The main thing for me was always do the butter at low temperature (below 170F). Once you've removed the vegetative matter there are fewer unwanted compounds and fewer things that can turn from one thing to another. I'm not saying use the weed butter as a saute but for brownies at 350? Sure!
