How Big Is The Horse?

It was an off-handed remark, “You have enough lettuce out there to choke a small horse.”this coming from Mike as he walked past the garden.
It was true. Even though I have scattered out my seeding of lettuce rows two weeks apart, they have all gotten ripe at the same time and I am going to have to cut a wheelbarrow full for the cows so the leaves can grow back.
A few hours after his remark, I was picking lettuce for a big dinner salad when Marilyn called out, “So that is the horse choking lettuce your going to feed us?”
Yes, yes it is. Along with half the neighborhood and several cows. No horse choking this time around.
