Consider -- Home Made Salad

You ever hear someone say "I'm going to make a salad."  A salad is what; lettuce, tomatoes, dressing, maybe cheese or croutons?  Can someone really pride themselves on making a salad, when its really so simple?  Salad Bars, so easy children can make a salad.  So making a salad isn't so difficult, unless you are actually... making a salad.

I previously have mentioned how I have a pretty awesome garden.  Well today, I've decided I'm going to make myself a salad... that I actually grew.  Now I don't mean to come off as smug, well maybe a little smug, but this is another satisfying reason why I enjoy my garden.  

And realistically, my girlfriend did the put the salad together, because she's pretty awesome.  She has a great photo blog you should really consider checking out.  She took the picture of the lettuce, the ones bellow I took.  But the salad was so fresh and tasted so good.  I paired it with a very nice Red Baron Pepperoni and Sausage Pizza and some Iced Tea.  What a delicious meal.  Consider growing your own garden.

that's the kind of lettuce we were growing at Francis... you can take scissors, give it a hair cut every few days and it keeps growing... practically year round... love that stuff... and you'll get seeds; they grow pretty easily. :) yay!
