Just letting you know, I'm taking this week off from blogging

Hi friends,

Just to let you know, I'm taking this week off, a spring-break of sorts for me. I hope you're all enjoying a wonderful week. I'll be back next week to share more of the ways my family thrives on a budget.

The Experiment That Failed


Remember the watercress seeds I started on a damp paper towel-lined plate? Well, they did sprout, and they did begin to grow. And then they only got leggy and the leaves never really grew. Others have done this successfully, so I must have missed something with my seeds. 

Perhaps they didn't get enough light through the window. Or perhaps they needed to be kept more moist. I did have trouble keeping ups with daily sprinkling with water. Perhaps I should have kept the plate covered with a clear plastic bag. So many perhaps. 

I'll try again some other time. For now, chock this failure up to experience. And now I know how not to grow watercress sprouts.

We do know what's not on our Easter dinner menu -- sprouted watercress.  Have a happy Easter, friends.
