Lettuce from a Friend’s Garden

I got a text that my friend saying she was in the driveway. She’d brought a bag of homegrown lettuce from her garden. I sat on the side porch stoop, she stayed in her car. We talked a bit. Thanks for the delicious lettuce, Joan. You wrapped it so carefully in the wet towels. It was crispy and refreshing. Summer.

  1. Only Groundhogs and possibly raccoons have enjoyed our lettuce. We have yet to have any. So far, we’ve only trapped a raccoon; the neighbor tells us the groundhog is so fat, he can back out of the trap!

  2. We have a friend who shares fresh vegetables from his garden. We especially like the Butter Crunch lettuce. He also plants a small garden for our mother who at 97 still enjoys being a home grown country girl. Like you ,we are friends who share.
