Debunking Beer Can Chicken: A Waste Of Good Beer, And Dangerous
It's Spring and everyone is planting. There is no need to be left out of the fun just because you don't have a yard. This miniature garden would do the trick do bring Spring indoors.
It comes with seeds for edible clover, cress, lettuce and mustard. I wonder how they came up with that assortment. I, for one, had never even heard of cress. I looked it up on Wikipedia and found that cress can refer to any of the following:
- watercress
- land cress
- garden cress
- winter cress
- rock cress
- thale cress
Which type of cress comes in the garden? You'll have to let me know. The mini garden is $30 and can be purchased from the Sarut Group.

The nearest grocery store to my house is very convenient -- at a couple of blocks away, it wouldn't be much hassle to bike down and pick up a few things. But it's a very ordinary store as well, and doesn't always have what I might be hunting. And when it doesn't? Well, the half-hour drive downtown is usually worth it for the abundant selection of fresh fruits and veggies, but sometimes I simply don't feel up to it. So, facing up to the coming winter, I've cleared off a sunny kitchen windowsill as an ideal place to attempt to grow my own selection of herbs. And while I don't claim to have a green thumb, a couple of weeks into the experiment my little plants -- basil, oregano, sage, rosemary, and lavender (I've never cooked with this last, but it smells lovely in the kitchen) -- already seem to be growing a bit. Want to test your own green thumb?
