The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Every part of a Birch tree contains healing substances and is often applied in folk medicine as well as in official medicine for healing purposes.
These parts are: juice, leaves, buds, wood,and bark.

some credit must be shared with its host.

Chaga and Chives
Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) is a part of the same family as onions, scallions and garlic. They grow from small bulbs and have a long history of culinary and medicinal uses. In the Middle Ages, chives were promoted as a cure for melancholy and believed to drive away evil spirits. Chives and chive flowers are high in vitamin C, folic acid and potassium. They can be easily added to recipes to help restore nutrients lost in cooking. This herb's taste come from its concentration of sulfur compounds and other essential oils, which are also partly responsible for its healing properties.
Health Benefits of Chives
Chives have been used to help lower blood pressure and aid digestion. They stimulate appetite and help to promote good digestion.Chives also possess some antiseptic properties. They can be used to ease stomach upset, clear a stuffy nose, reduce flatulence and prevent bad breath. They have a mild diuretic effect, as well.
Growing
Chives are a very easy seed to start from seed or a small separation from a friend. They spread easily and harvest even more easily. Chive Vinegar is a very pretty pink color and goes well on salads or in cooked recipes.
Chaga and Chives make a great mushroom gravy.
