I love Spring and this time of year always makes me wish I had my very own vegetable garden. I don't really have a green thumb naturally but every year I pick up a few new tricks and manage to help my plants survive little longer then the year before. This spring we had a packet of extra sweet basil seeds lying around and some seed starter soil, so Lyla and I got creative about what we could use to plant the seeds in. We made little greenhouses that have worked amazingly. Using a rinsed out yogurt cup we just punctured the bottom then filled it with soil and planted our seeds, then I rinsed out a baby food jar and stuck that on top and put it in the windowsill - within a few days all of our seeds were budding. Can't wait to make some pesto with these guys!
