Snow, the unlikeliest superfood

As child labour goes, it's hardly like being shoved up a chimney. But in between hurling snowballs and apparently competing to make the most lopsided, physically handicapped snowman, my children were put to work in the fields yesterday.

We might be approaching the "hungry gap", the early spring months when nothing much edible grows, but this week most of us have been surrounded by one of nature's most bountiful fruits: snow. Before the great thaw begins, it's time to get harvesting.

The savvy gastronome will already have plenty of recipes for snow – marshmallow snowmen, snow biscuits and, of course, snow ice-cream. And if bars serve snowballs, why not make a real snow cocktail?

A ligh-hearted look at snow but I think I'll give it a miss.
The Norwegians have long complained that our acid rain strips the needles off their pine trees.Goodness knows what it does to our bodies whatever form its in.
