When I was little and my Polish grandmother cooked with dill, she would joke and tell me she was using grass clippings. I think I will always associate dill with grass clippings for this reason. To me, dill looks like new, thin baby grass in spring and the smell reminds me of my grandparents' garden. It may not be a spring vegetable, but nothing evokes spring in my mind more than dill. - VanessaS
