Toast? Perhaps the phrase sought for is "croutons". Goes better with arugula, I think. With a nice balsamic vinaigrette?

I prefer blue cheese, myself. Drowns out the bitterness of the arugula. Why do people like that stuff, anyway? Iceberg lettuce too bland and boring? Green leaf lettuce wilts too fast? It's a fancy sounding word? Other than used as part of a mix of greens, I don't get it.

Fresh raw spinach though, or down home Southern collard greens, well ok. Now we're talking. And sweet potato pie instead of pumpkin.

A steady supply of all of the above, and I promise I won't huff n' puff and blow your house down. or is that burn it down? oh right, that's the ticket. Nice house you've got there. Would be a shame if anything happened to it.

But it would be ok if you run out of croutons. eh, who needs 'em that much, anyway?

I think we’re off the bottom left of the map. I don’t like arugula, but it came up in my garden along with other lettuce-type stuff. We have a fancy young lady dragon who is crazy about it.

I prefer spinach.
