Eating Greens

I made a few blankets last week...and my brain shut down momentarily, so I forgot to take pictures of them before sending them off.  So instead, I'll write about my garden.

It's day 4 of my salad-for-lunch-diet.  Knowing of my inherent dislike of salad, you might ask why I am doing this to myself.  Well, back in October last year, I threw some carrot, beet, and lettuce seeds down in my garden and now I've go this:


My lettuce is now at least 4 feet tall (bet you didn't know lettuce could grow that tall), the beets are probably 2 lb a pop, and the carrots are splitting open because they are so fat.  So, my mission to eat salad is not so much to lose weight or be healthy, but to consume my awesome garden before the bugs, nasty caterpillars, and heat beat me to it...

  3. niiiiiiiice. :) salads are awesome!

    here's a fun easy dressing that is good on most salads: balsalmic vinegar, shallots, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil

    a fun salad idea would be greens, shredded carrots, onions, cilantro, blueberries, and avocado..mmmm
