R.I.P Lettuce. I Hardly Knew Ya.

KELLY * June 28 * A Eulogy

Little to say today. We had dinner at a friend's, so no work on the CSA veg. I did, however, make Liz a lovely salad this morning to try to salvage the last 2 boxes worth of lettuce. Unfortunately about half of it had gone to the great beyond. That which remained made a lovely lunch for Liz with farmers' market white radishes, some "been around for a while" carrots, "who knows where they came from" olives and red onions, Edgewater Produce tomatoes, and CSA broccoli stalks. Word on the street is that the salad was delish. I'm only sad to say that the rest of the lettuce was not around to hear its praises. I give my heartfelt apologies for being wasteful and I'll try to do better in the future. Our first casualty.

ELIZABETH * June 28 * Lunch

I will just say, the salad was awesome. And big. I know a lot of lettuces (2) gave their lives for that salad, but it was not in vain. The half we didn't have to throw away was crisp, sweet, and flavorful. The salad, with basil-infused olive oil and salt and pepper, provided a great and satisfying luncheon, which I enjoyed. Thank you lettuces. And XO K.
