Re: chia

[Guest guest]

Well, in my neck of the woods they had a sale of buy one package of organic chia

(this was in GNC) and get the second one for 1/2 price.

I grabbed them.

Have LOTS of chia seeds now. I mix them up with the flax.

Last night as I was passing a neighbor's house (their BACKYARD is on the side of

their house so everybody was sitting having a barbecue). I shouted HI and I was

invited to sit with them and share their meal. I had already eaten but

everything looked great.

My neighbor introduced me and said " Do you know what she does? She SPROUTS,

She's on youtube, this is Sproutlady "

And there was Melody calmly talking about my Sprouting shelves and what I grow

and they were asking the usual questions and I was laughing and talking about

sprouting (as well as other funny things that have happened to me). Such a good

time.

So after 40 or so minutes I thanked them for inviting me, went around the corner

to my own house, went in, grabbed a tray of chia and flax and said " I'm going to

show them EXACTLY what these things look like "

Because even though you tell someone about sprouts (and we are talking over 20

people here) there were children who never heard of sprouts.

So there I went walking back into their side yard and passing around my tray and

they were going oooh, what's this? when I said " Chia " , someone said " What's

Chia? " and they all said " Oh you you know the commercial from years ago " CH CH

CH CHIA!!!!! " And they said " oh this is the Chia Pet? " .

That's when I began my dissertation on ORGANIC Chia as opposed to Chia Pet Chia.

And then I pointed to the other sprouts on the tray and I said " you'll never

guess what this is? " No one had a clue.

I said " This is Flax " .

Well, NO ONE knew what Flax was.

They now do!!!!
