    I'm assuming you are meaning like "lawn mowing" not eating weeds :) I sat here for a second trying to figure out why you would eat weeds (sorry, mom made me do it as a kid, Dandilions make good tea).

    I don't track my daily lifestyle activities. I figure those are already account for when I answered the question about whether I was sedetary or active. If not, I would guess the equivilant would be mild walking as you are most moving slow and not really getting your heart rate up there.

    If you have a HRM - wear it, might be kind of fun to see how active you really got.

    There is gardening. You might be able to put it as that. I'm not sure what else you could list it as.

    I grew up in a small town, so I have a bit of redneck in me. That's why I refer to it as weed eating and not weed whacking or weed whipping. :flowerforyou:

    For sure, cook it before hand in the butter, once made mac and cheese with it. Fun day!
