By Lady Esther
This month I asked anyone who could to bring something to add to the salad. I had a mix of salad very
similar to what we did in May ready to be added to. It contained mostly a purchased spring mix of
young salad greens, a few peas, some lambs quarters, mustard greens, and leaves of common mallow
(the flowers of which are also edible but they weren't in this one). Lady Ellie brought some purslane
which doesn't grow at my house due to lack of watering. Erin was kind enough to pick some of my
roses (which I think may be of the Gallica variety), wash them, spin them dry and pluck off the bitter
yellow-white base on the petals so that the rest of the petal could garnish the salad. That was a tedious
task which she was happy to do. Thank you to everyone who helped to make this beautiful salad.
