RE: THE EDIBLE OUTDOORS 27 - HENBIT

The flower looks like an orchid. I have only taken one botany class so I can't remember how to describe it properly, but how it is isosceles-ish having the two mirrored sides and the third a smaller petal. Is this true at all? Is it in that family ?

Perhaps the flower does look a bit like it, but these are not in the same family as orchids. This flower is also very tiny, and was photographed with a macro lens. Good point though on the similarity. They sure are beautiful!
