Lettuce Procreate

Lettuce plants and kids have a lot in common.

Lettuce Gets Morning Sunshines

Some days they’re so cute you can’t help but nuzzle your face right into them, and then other days you’re tempted to just bite their little heads right off.

How’s your lettuce container garden coming along?  (It’s still not too late to start one, you know.)  Mine is one month old and has been relocated from full sun in the backyard to part shade on the railing of the front porch.  It now only gets a wee bit o’ sunshine the in the early AM hours and then lollygags about in the shade for the rest of the day – asking for something to eat and then begging me to play Old Maid when I’m done folding the laundry.

Whose idea was it to grow lettuce anyway?

    Wow! Your’s is moving right along & soon to disappear. Tomorrow is my first CSA pick-up of the season (thanks for the tip, Ali) and the farm email said lettuce is on the list. I’m ready with my fork & dressing.
