Red Lettuce

We got a lovely letter in the mail the other day with a wonderful surprise! It was from my great-aunt Carol, sharing news of her early spring blooms and winter cabbages.

And the surprise? Some seeds from her red lettuce plants!

Now, some of you may recall that this is the same aunt and uncle who have an amazing green thumb and their vegetable "garden" is something to behold (or covet, as Will and I do). Hopefully the seeds like us and will grow beautiful red-headed lettuce, just as it does for them.
