Separate the romaine lettuce leaves and submerge them in the water. Swish the lettuce leaves around in the water until all of the dirt or other residue is removed from the leaves. Dry the romaine leaves by spinning them in a salad spinner or dry each leaf thoroughly with a clean dish towel. Line the crisper drawer in the refrigerator with dry, clean kitchen towels or paper towels to absorb excess moisture from the leaves. Layer the leaves on top of each other in the drawer on top of the towels.

What is the difference between a trial balance and a balance sheet? A trial balance is an internal report that will remain in the accounting department. It is a listing of all of the accounts in the general ledger and their balances. However, the debit balances are entered in one column and the credit balances are entered in another column. Each column is then summed to prove that the total of the debit balances is equal to the total of the credit balances. A balance sheet is one of the financial statements that will be distributed outside of the accounting department and is often distributed outside of the company.
