My Salad

18 years ago

I'm so excited!! I have to tell everyone about my salad. It consists of "everything green" and plus anything that is ready to eat. It has several kinds of loose leaf lettuce, red, bright green, curly. Chives, walking onions, radishes, asparagus, dill, lemon balm, french tarragon, anise hyssop, collards, turnip greens, spearmint, peppermint, parsely, spinach, oregano and thyme. All baby leafs. I sprinkle a little seasoned salt on it and enjoy!! The different tastes are what makes it. One bite you can taste lemon and the next mint and the next something different. French tarragon and anise hyssop tastes like licorce. I've got so much of it, I can't keep up. For dessert I have strawberries and ice cream. I knocked off one of my "to do before I dies" and made a rhubarb pie the other day. I had never eaten it before and it was so delicious now I can't wait till it grows back so I can have another pie. The blackberries are coming on better than I have seen in several years, apricots and plums are looking good. Tomatoes are blooming and so is my carribean reds!! I had so many volunteer plants this year I had to carve my garden out of the middle of them. Last nite I finally had to pull two heaping wheelbarrow fulls of tomatoe plants. I just didn't have anywhere to put them all. Okra, squash, green beans and cukes are coming on strong. I am truly blessed. One spot about 25' by 30 came up volunteer tomatoe, watermelon, cantalope and cucumbers. I had to clear out the tomatoes but in the midst of all the melons and cantalopes there are all kinds of flowers here and there. It will be really pretty when they bloom.
