Beautiful! I'm forwarding this post to The Hubster. I want some lettuce beds. It's sooooo much better when it goes straight from the garden to your salad bowl.

I go to a pick-your-own farm for lettuce. You can get a big plastic grocery bag full for $3. Major deal! And it last a long time because it's fresh!

Wow. Your lettuce is beautiful. I don't grow anything, so I'm super-impressed by people who do.

What beautiful lettuce! I didn't know you had foot surgery – I'm so behind in my reading. I hope you're feeling better soon~

I am not a "food" type of gardener but I have to say I love the color of the lettuce! It is beautiful! I am sure it tastes as good as it looks!

do you have some homeade dressings that are simple but good? i usually use Newman's Own Balsamic, which is fine, but I would like to make my own.

I live in OR too! I wish I would have planted lettuce. So far, I haven't planted anything, but my mother-in-law has. Guess we will be enjoying her garden this year.

Oh my! What goodness. It just makes me want a big bowl full of summer. We did find some delicious baby lettuce at our local farmer's market last week. I hope to try some seeds closer to fall. Right now it is so hot and humid here that it's all I can do to keep our tomatoes and peppers alive.

I love lettuce straight from the garden. My husbands grandmother used to give it to us. But she doesn't garden anymore. I have been asking everyone I know to PLEASE plant me some LETTUCE!

We have Simpson Lettuce -- wavy leaf lettuce that is delicate, crunchy at the base and soft and tender at the tip. Very delicious.

We also planted head lettuce - but I'm not enjoying that too much, as Arugula, which we loved, but it bolted way too soon.

I recently had to cut back all the leaf lettuce because all the rain made it just EXPLODE. I hope some of it comes back!!!

Thanks for the link. I keep lurking and really enjoy your blog. I love your romantic and enthusiastic lettuce-love. I doubt anyone can read this without craving a fresh salad! I know I am on my way to grab some fresh leaves now!

YUM! Love your lettuce (don't love that photo of me, however. Who is that? eesh.)

So jealous of your garden! It sounds so healthy and delicious!

Peppery arugula would be my favorite! Added to a mixed green salad, it adds just the right amount of bitter/pepper flavor!
My lettuce is doing great! We are eating off it daily!

I love your lettuce. You are on my list to get back to after my big wedding brunch for 100. I hope your foot feels better soon.

Love your kids and your home.

I love all kinds of lettuce. I usually buy it bagged..snicker...and I love the spring mix.

I planted lettuce in my garden but the stuff from seed is having issues )C: which makes me sad. I do have 4 plants that someone gave me, and they're doing well. I may need to do something different for next year.

I always love how yummy your lettuce looks.

Hope you have a wonderful day. Nancy
