Romaine lettuce~ Regrowing from kitchen scraps!!

I started these in water for about a week and then  moved them to their new home.  So far so good.  The plants are adjusting nicely.  Now that our nights aren't dipping down into freezing temps, I may just start transitioning them outside.  I love finding ways to save money.  And who doesn't love a good salad?

I love when the forsythias bloom.  It is always the first signal that spring is here in our part of the world!  My daughter and I were in a big box grocery store just the other day and saw some forsythia branches for sale in the floral department.  The branches were being sold in groups of five for five dollars!  A dollar a branch?  Apparently, we have a small fortune in forsythia bushes and never knew it~  =0)
