We came home from a camping trip today to find that a lot had changed in our garden. I harvested three radishes, which included White Icicle, Plum Purple, and China Rose radishes. We also decided to harvest three of our beets. We have heard that they are tastier when harvested early, so we pulled a Chioggia, a Cylindra, and a Bull's Blood beet. We will leave the others to get bigger.
There was a lot of lettuce growing, so we also decided to harvest some of it. Again, we cut a little bit of each variety, including some of our mom's Boston lettuce.
We combined the lettuce, beets, and radishes with a few other ingredients in a salad. Jennifer made some croutons in the oven using some bread cubes, dried thyme, salt and pepper, garlic powder, and olive oil. We also added some tomatoes, onion, and cucumber to the salad.
