I just might have to take a look at those...
Lettuce has not been spoiling lately, we are using it up too quickly!

I often use whole romaine or Boston butter leaves under various foods as
decoration on dad's plates. He always eats it of course! Edible garnish.

Baby spinach leaves are good for that too, as are whole basil leaves.

Oh! That's another awesome salad ingredient! Basil leaf. Either whole or
thin sliced. Some other fresh herbs are good also. I have a small herb
garden on the West side of the house.
