Re: Update on my sunnies in the baby blanket.

They do look good.  When I planted beans and from your sunnies, I found that

the bean hull comes up.  I figured the seed stayed in the ground and a shoot

comes up, but the bean looks like it comes up and the roots go down and then the

leaves come out and eventually the hull which was the bean covering comes off. 

I'm sure that sounds dumb to you, but since we plant seeds, I expected them to

stay there and the leaves and stem to come up.  I knew the sprouts had a hull

on them in a way but it still didn't dawn on me.

I must say they are really coming along. I snipped some and had them in my salad

for dinner. How fresh and vibrant they are growing.

take a look

Yeah, as they grow, the little tiny black caps are attached to the shoot. When

they grow really high, the caps fall off (of I just sit in front of the tv and

pick them off) SO RELAXING. I got that tip from . lol

And they make such a lovely addition to the salad. So colorful. And they go

great in the batter too. I think tomorrow I'll do a sunflower pea shoot onion

tomato batter.

Oh, that sounds lovely. lol
