Notes About The Poem

Lettuce

 leaf lettuce plus red
washed through three cold water baths  ....
slug falls in sink  

To make matters worse, I just read an article on the internet where a person found a baby poisonous snake in a bag of lettuce that her son sent to her from the store chain called "Aldi's". It was alive. I guess it was fresh lettuce but deadly. My lettuce was from our garden.

Mystic Rose Rose Date: 4/16/2021 4:07:00 PM wow, luck you washed it thrice, I normally add a drop of oregano oil in the water kills all germs, :) thanks for sharing Sara Login to Reply Sara Kendrick Date: 4/17/2021 4:05:00 PM Mystic, If the oregano oil lingered my husband would not eat it so I can't do that. He loves the flavor when he goes to a place called Aviano's Greek and Italian Restaurant but when I use oregano in my cooking he says he doesn t like it. Sara

Victor Buhagiar Date: 4/15/2021 9:46:00 AM Good way to get rid of the slugs. Login to Reply Sara Kendrick Date: 4/16/2021 3:13:00 AM Victor, I wish there was a way to get rid of them permanently in our garden. We used to not have them then for the past few years they are a real nuisance. Your visits always buoy my spirits. Sara
