The state of being a parent comes with responsibilities. One is to bring joy and fulfilment to the hearts of those you parent. Do good. Also to yourself. Make a summer savoury salad.
Use Puy lentils. They do not disintegrate while cooking so they are ideal for salads. Find the best tomatoes you can. Maybe you are so lucky as to grow your own or to know someone who does so on a balcony or on a plot of shared land. Get to know the collective garden initiatives in your neighbourhood!
