It's so yummy! Angela, if you try it, I'd love to know what you think! (I do wrestle with how much salt to add. I think the recipe is too high on salt, but then, I'm also a chronic under-seasoner ....)

I saw a documentary that discussed the problem with romaine lettuce - many of the bigger farms are downstream from livestock farms, and diseases are getting transmitted through the water and runoff. After that documentary, I began buying greenhouse lettuce. I hate that it comes in plastic containers, but I’m not taking the chance on conventionally grown lettuces.

Also! I have a room of my own - a bedroom I converted into a woman cave - and it’s GLORIOUS and marriage-preserving. I keep my clothes in the closets, I work out in this room, read, meditate, watch TV. I do recognize the great privilege in this, of course. We also don’t have children, so it was easier to snag a bedroom for myself. My husband basically has domain over the living room. It works for us ☺️

A woman cave! I love that you and Baldy have found realms that work for both of you. So good. And I hadn't heard the distinction between greenhouse lettuce and others, but now I'll be investigating the labels. Thanks for sharing and for reading, Amy!
