And a Cat Named Sprout



Beautiful! Our beans finally came up yesterday. I was getting a little worried-getting, I weep. They look so pretty. I tried a few in the ground at first, to no avail; then I did the old wet paper towel on the plate thing to sprout them inside. I bet everyone did that in elementary school. What were we supposed to learn? I think we pinned our beans to cardboard in four different directions and kept them wet. The idea was that no matter which way the bean was positioned, the sprout would grow up, toward the sun. Sure enough, that's what happened in my backyard. Nice. Below is a picture of the bean tee pee around which the beans will live. Sprout for life!
