My recent foray into gardening again reminded me of my hippie days and through that mental trail brought me back to the idea of sprouting. I dug out one of my sprouting jars and after a trip to the health food store to purchase sprout seeds, I am beginning to "sprout" again.
Many moons ago I never ventured past cultivating alfalfa sprouts, then I discovered broccoli sprouts. The latter are my favorites by far, however, they do cost more than the run-of-the-mill alfalfa sprouts. Upon my latest sprout shopping trip, I discovered a "sprout sandwich mix." I am not a sprout expert by any stretch of the imagination, so I cannot name the types of seeds in this mix. Nonetheless, my mouth waters just thinking of the coming harvest.
Until my other garden is ready for harvest, I am delightfully awaiting my sprout harvest of nutritional, crunchy, home-grown veggies.
