I'll answer that: No. You can't. So, home comes the new head of lettuce, a tiny quarter of it gets used for tacos, and the rest lurks in the fridge, waiting to go bad. Again.
Ta-dah! Mission accomplished. Well done, lettuce. You were a masterful adversary.
And, since that's all I have to say about that, a preview of some post yet to be finished:
Something free! My cheap little soul is pretty excited about it. Also about the cloth diapers that are in the mail, as we speak. By "as we speak", I mean "as I sit here at 6:35 in the morning, wrapped up in a blanket because it's still freezing cold even though it's the end of April". And by "in the mail", I mean "sitting at the depot, waiting for Easter to be over".
