Wow, this is great . . . I think you must be . . . the first harvester of the year :) Here's to fresh and healthy eating. Your blogging sister, Connie :)
Yes, the leaves are much crisper this picking. Even my youngest son, who hates leaf lettuce, remarked on how crisp it was (before he went on to devour half of it). I cut it back pretty severely though, so I hope it grows again. It's been back on the windowsill all week, since it's back to cold and cloudy, so it was beginning to look a bit spindly.
Yay! Dang why didn't I think of planting some lettuce inside. I must have missed your earlier post. Shame on me, ha. I wonder if it's too late? I have seeds, I have dirt...
Thanks, Barbie. I love 1st. Man, he's just a fun and funny guy, with a great big heart and more talent in his little finger than I have in my entire body! I want him to be my interior (and exterior) decorator!
It was started under lights, then we got a week or so of nice weather so it spent the days outside, but now it just resides on the windowsill and seems quite happy there. I wish I had grown 2 containers, but I wasn't expecting it to be so successful!
Ah I can just taste it through the photo. I can't wait for spring to get here.
ReplyDeletePretty, isn't it?

Connie, don't forget the sweet peppers I picked in January! The pepper plant is blooming like crazy again :-)
DeleteSuch pretty lettuce leaves. It looks like they are firming up a bit as well.

ReplyDelete1st. Man....GO FORTH AND PLANT!
DeleteSo it is written, so it shall be. :-) I'm already getting seeds out and I'm looking for an appropriate planting container now.
DeleteBlessings, my child.
DeleteLOL I'm laughing at 1st man. Looking good Granny!

DeleteBeautiful lettuce! I can't believe it was grown in a windowsill. Happy gardening.

DeleteOh, that lettuce is so pretty and looks so yummy! Lucky you! Nancy
ReplyDeleteNancy, those who ate it said it was delicious. I didn't get any!
