Green it is!

I've grown something. It's green. It's edible. There is actually something thriving on my windowsill. All the way from seeds to something edible!

For you out there in the know how to grow things and harvesting mounds of lettuce, carrots, beans, tomatoes (oh homegrown tomatoes!) or whatever, it might seem a little feat but for me however this is big. Here you see just how big it is. It took a while to see some sprouting but a friend was so good to tell me I had to make sure there was enough water in the bowl so the little seedlings had some food... Hmm, she was right. Now I may go ahead and actually plant the seeds I bought at the Boerenbond. I bought lettuce, spring onions and cinnamon basil. I hope those will work as well. I also have some strawberry seeds but there is nothing going on in their pot yet.

Have you guessed already what you have been looking at? It's rucola sprouts! And they are delicious in a salad or sprinkled on your cheese/tomato sandwich, or cream cheese spread with rucola...
