Leaves

I've been eating a lot of salads lately--they are easy to make ahead and pack for lunch. The woman who sits next to me at work also brings salad for lunch--often lately, because its summer and she wants to look good in her swimsuit on vacation. But the charming things is that instead of calling it salad, she always says, "Oh, I have leaves for lunch today." I don't know why that's so amusing, but I always laugh. I had leaves for lunch.
