A Ladybug in My Arugula!
Last night I was preparing dinner and I had just purchased some fresh organic arugula. I was cleaning it in the kitchen sink and lo and behold, out of the bundle of greenery, walked a single ladybug. Those kinds of things are always special moments to me.
I took the insect and placed it in a spider plant on the counter next to our table. This morning during coffee, I watched her crawl out of the plant and begin to walk across the counter. I was able to point this out to my wife Sue so she could experience the beneficial insect too.
Such a simple treat. We should all take time to notice things like this more often.
