I have a tremendous amount of purslane growing on my stone patio.
Please take some.
The small leaves are great raw in salads; the larger ones are fantastic sautéed with garlic.

DM if you’d like some.

Now let’s get a closer look at the new Tuxedo portion of Winnipeg West.
As you can see, it was a mixed political bag in 2021.
Many of these voters went NDP in the 2024 provincial Tuxedo byelection.
For Morantz to win again, he may need his home neighbourhood to vote a little bluer.
