I know you’ve been wondering “where in the world have yall been?” It’s been quite a while since our last post, but I just wanted to let you all know that we are still alive and kicking. Since our last post about regrowing green onions, a lot has happened (and not happened), so let’s hop to it.

Today, I figured it was time to share with you all in that area, so I want to start with a question. Have you ever seen living lettuce in the grocery store?

My very first attempt at hydroponics…smh. It was not good at all. It was pretty sad in my opinion, but like all newbies, we live, we learn, and we grow (see what I did there?). However, I just wanted to share with you my mistakes, so that you do not make the same ones. [Read more…] about My First Attempt at Hydroponics

I won’t focus much on the hydroponic growing system as I will blog in more detail on this later. However, I do want to share some photos and the recipe from this weekend! If you recall from my wife’s post on Real Cooking, we may or may not have exact measurements because sometimes we “wing-it”, but I will try to give you a good place to start. Besides, the way we season, may not be the way you season!
