I’ve always loved the idea of fresh herbs from the garden. Just snip a couple sprigs of cilantro for some homemade salsa or some dill for a yummy cucumber salad. Just thinking about it makes me feel very Food Network-y.

Here’s how they look done…(can you feel the excitement building??)
I’m sure they’re already growing, I can just feel it.

And if they can survive sitting next to Elliott for three meals a day, I should have some sprouts in 14-21 days.
The suspense is killing me…
