When I was a kid, 50's, When I picked Buttercups [ the little yellow flowers]And put them in boiling water, a miracle would take place,while I was out of the Kitchen, they would turn into small change. Was this just my family tradition, or are there any other Buttercup to cash people out there?

No buttercup to cash, but we did stick a bright yellow dandelion flower under a friends chin and if we saw a yellow reflection there we'd say "oooh you like butter"

Nothing for buttercups, but my grandfather used to pay us grandkids to gather blossoms to make dandelion wine.
