As I have mentioned before, I usually do not spend my mornings watching television because it generally sets a tone of laziness for the day, but I watched a bit of Martha this morning. I was excited to see her segment about seed sprouting. My seed sprouter finally came in, but the sprouting seeds were on back-order so it has been sitting in its box tucked away on the back part of the kitchen counter. After finding some alfalfa and nine grain sprouting seed mix, I decided to give it a try. Martha made it sound as if you just placed the seeds in the sprouter and poured water over it every day. Well, either I wasn’t watching close enough, or she left out the part about having to soak the seeds overnight. Boy,was I disappointed to realize that the seeds had to be soaked before placing in the sprouter.

For now I just have a photo of my sprouter, but I hope to show the progress over the next few days.

You can find the sprouter available for purchase in my store located through the link at the top of this page.
