After washing lettuce, tear with hands rather than cutting with knife. Metal turns the adges of lettuce brown. To keep, wrap lettuce in a paper towel to absorb excess liquid then place in plastic bag.
Cut- up fresh garden veggies such as carrots, cucumber, and beans and serve as a snack to children while they watch their favorite T.V. show/video. This keeps children from being underfoot while you are cooking, and eliminates one pot from the stove. (Gail Signor)
