I wanted one of these last year for Christmas and they couldn't find one for me. Then I promptly forgot about it and saw one again the other day at our local Canadian Tire. So I got one with the Herb Garden package.
It has Oregano, Chives, Thyme, Mint, Basil and Dill. I can't wait until these little suckers grow up :)
Aren't those chives cute :)
This is after a 11 days in this little machine. I started them on November 1st.
This is my tray of salad sprouts, ready to eat. Actually they were ready a couple of days ago but I've been feeling so yucky that I just didn't want a salad. Can't taste much anyway so what's the use :)
But the other night, I grabbed a bunch of them and threw them in this little machine and added them to my veggie juice.
I had an older one from years ago and I found I was wasting a ton of vegetables so I went out shopping again and picked this one up. It's not like those hundreds of dollar juicers and if I juice more often than once a day, I might invest in a larger one, but for now, I like this one just fine.
I'm home today as this day is a Stat holiday for us where I live. I'm feeling better so I'm going to go walk on my treadmill for an hour. Since my nose is still plugged I'm not sure just how fast I'm going to walk but I've got to do something. From laying around so much last week and weekend, and with no walking, my HIP is really sore at night and I know movement helps alleviate the pain quite a bit.
Then I'm going to spend the day cleaning my house that never got done on the weekend cause my butt was stuck to the couch. BF and Katie get home tonight so I'm going to enjoy my alone time while I can.
I hope everyone has a FANTASTIC day and make excellent choices!
Keep the mood positive.

I have thought about getting one of the herb planters myself. I just don't really have the room.
ReplyDeleteThat tray is nifty. I finally grew some basil this year in a pot. I was so proud of myself lol. Glad you got some exercise in.
ReplyDeleteI really don't have the room either so I stuck it behind my sink in the kitchen. It works for now but makes that space all the more cramped. I can't wait until I can grow the lettuce package I bought but since the herbs will take some time to actually fully mature, I may have to buy another one just for the lettuce mix. Don't know where I'd put it though :)
