Salad Season

There's no doubt, the lettuce patch is the prettiest part of the spring garden.  With leaves of greens and reds, shiny and matte, smooth and frilled, firm and delicate, it's all a feast for the eyes.  But a plate piled high with fresh salad greens is even more beautiful.  We can't seem to enjoy enough salad these days.  It's peak lettuce season so we hope you'll indulge with us in this seasonal treat.  These are our favorite dressings.


  Our Basic Salad Dressing Recipe
1 cup oil
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 tsp. salt

Wilted Lettuce Salad
  Finely chop bacon and fry with green onions.  Add honey and vinegar.  Bring to a simmer then pour hot over lettuce.  Yum!!  Eric said he could become a vegetarian if he could eat salads like this (like we made yesterday) all the time
