I bought two packets of lettuce for the T'giving salad. One was romaine. Okay, fine. Frisbee that one to the trash. But the other was "field greens." I'm safe.

Looked at it Wednesday evening as the food prep begins. First ingredient: romaine. Frisbee that one too.

Pasta salad for Turkey Day.

I'm thinking coleslaw - having a hankering for a salad so might have to settle for that.

LOL. :)

'searchin' their eyes and lookin' for traces of what I'm dreamin' of.'

Pink Eye sounds more like a nightmare than a dream.
I had it in both eyes once - it was terrible but because I was in the military they made me feel like I was malingering. Pretty sure I got it from borrowing another girl's spare towel at the gym when I forgot mine - yuck - won't do anything like that again!

I ate some a few nights ago and am having a hard time harnessing the anxiety right now. Trying to tell myself that I'll be okay because it was organic (but in this case, the chemicals probably would've helped).

E-Coli most commonly contaminates from feces. Which is most commonly used on organic.

In this case, I think it was contaminated water used on the field, so would have affected both organic, and the stuff I buy.

I often like to recall romaine lettuce. Especially the first time I had a caeser salad with the garlic, coddled egg, mustard, and anchovy dressing. Mmm...good recollections indeed!
:rofl: You're good, man.

I'm bummed - I thought the drama was over but today there was no lettuce at all anywhere in my Kroger. Not any other varieties. I had to get my grandpiggies some Kale, and I can tell you because I've tried it already - they don't like kale.

Here's the latest photo - are'n't they adorable?
