Father’s Day Mega-Lettuce

 

Bet THAT title got you!

 

Mega-Lettuce from Solana Beach Farmer's Market 

 

We spent a rare few free hours today in Solana Beach in the Cedros Design District, starting with a late lunch as a favorite place, the Wild Note Café (attached to the famed Belly-Up) followed by a stroll around this area which caters to those who are seeking furnishings for a home and/or are remodeling inside and out. Lots of galleries and clothing stores, too…all in all a VERY cool place to spend a few hours.

 

The Farmer’s Market in Solana Beach is one of the best I have seen outside of the one in LA and in San Francisco, especially for a small town.

 

The lettuce, perhaps the largest head of red leaf lettuce I’ve ever witnessed, called out to us, and at $2.50, was a tremendous bargain. There’s enough lettuce for a salad for bot of us every day for more than a week. It’s easily a foot in diameter, perhaps bigger.

 

Mega-lettuce…and it’s pesticide free and not genetically enhanced!

Hi Jeff, Cedros is one of my favorite areas and I am sure you had an enjoyable day. Happy Fathers Day, BTW. As for the lettuce, as big as it is, this lettuce is one of my favorites and it might last 3 days if I added a lot of Romaine, LOL.

Jeff $2.50 sounds like a bargain.  I have so much lettuce I gave some to a client and several friends.  This season the vegetables seem larger than life :)

Have a great week.

Jeff:  A foot in diameter, that's huge, must be that local coastal air that contributed to that lettuce head's size!

William - you must be quite the rabbit. My wife and I eat a lot of salad and this thing is massive!

Jennifer - it was a terrific bargain, especially when you see what thei big chain stores charge, and the quality

Thanks, Kathy - sorry I am just getting back to some comments. I appreciate the thought - it was a good day, and the lettuce is mag.

Tom - it did! Thanks.

Ginny - it was a terrific find indeed. Never saw one this big before

Andrea - the quality is excellent, and for the price a terrific bargain

Jane - ha ha, could be.

Barbara-Jo - agreed. But you do have th watch prices as they are NOT always the least expensive. but probably the freshest.

George - ha ha. Well, as long as I keep eating chocolate it will not always be quite so boyish. LOL
