The Lettuce Man came today. Of course that's not his name, but it's what M and I call him.
Every Thursday, the Lettuce Man delivers pesticide-free lettuce to my door. He sells boxes of eight heads, for five dirhams each. That's $1.35 apiece.
My neighbor and I share a box. Every leaf on every head of lettuce is healthy and green; there is no waste.
Sometimes, after the Lettuce Man leaves, I'll pick up one of the heads of lettuce and hold it like a bride's bouquet - they are that beautiful.
