In lieu of greens

 Hi Natty!  How are you today, my love?  I pray that all is well with you, that you are healthy and having a wonderful time.  Oh!  I'm a bit tired right now.  I had to cut the grass by the side of the road this evening.  I had between 4:45 and 7 pm to clean my mother's kitchen, take out the trash, cut the grass, cook and eat my dinner, and shower.  I managed to get all of that done with 6 minutes to spare before they called the sunset prayer.  Good thing dinner was steak and egg tacos.  If I had cooked rice, I would still have been eating when they called the prayer.  It's pretty simple.  I had the mini dough balls ready for the soft tacos, I just had to shape and stretch them out to cook on a hot plate.  The steak was already cooked, I just had to slice it up, heat it up in some grease, then crack a couple of eggs on top of it and sprinkle some salt and pepper.  I didn't have any lettuce, though.  The options growing in my yard were mint, basil, green hot peppers and young cashew leaves.  Perhaps the mint would have tasted good, but I went with the young cashew leaves.  It tasted OK.  I'm full, alhamdulillah.  Want some?
