I think that's Melilotus officinalis, which was introduced to the US as a forage crop. The common name is sweet clover because the leaves contain coumarin, which smells like vanilla.

Thank you! That does seem to be it. It popped up this year and I've been letting it grow to see what it becomes. It's actually kinda pretty and I'm thinking about encouraging it around the perimeter of our house. The dragonflies seem to like it.
You're welcome :) It should be great for pollenators too.
thats some of that good weed
Lol. That's inside the house >.>
Sorry all. I keep getting an unexpected token error when attempting to upload a photo. I'll try updating the post with an image in a bit.
Edit: IT WORKED!
Or imgur link
Ahh. Yes, I'll do that.
EDIT: lol, i'll keep waiting. Site metadata page fetch is not DOCTYPE html
