Creativity Abounds" where her children planted seeds to grow into Easter eggs ... so there's hope for your chocolate plant yet!<br /><br />Here's her link<br />http://etadventures.blogspot.com/2010/04/planting-some-easter-magic.html<br /><br />Donna :) :)Play for Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08475920387209134195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932919.post-23643247914749714432010-04-16T15:41:41.325-07:002010-04-16T15:41:41.325-07:00Well Tom, you could have posted this earlier so I ...Well Tom, you could have posted this earlier so I could have used it in my post last night on adding gardens to preschools. Very inconsiderate of you :)<br /><br />I was just thinking the other day how pretty the flowers were looking, and look forward to learning all about your latest gardening adventure. <br /><br />I'm not to keen on jello, but if those clever children of yours could come up with a chocolate plant I'd be very interested!Let the Children Playhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05121823006891382199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932919.post-63395604833839724882010-04-16T10:53:14.818-07:002010-04-16T10:53:14.818-07:00We're only just about to start our food growin...We're only just about to start our food growing here too. I hope we're not too late, because I don't know my ass from my elbow with this stuff! We were going to try some upside down tomato plants hanging from the eaves, because we have crazy hungry racoons here. Not sure how to protect the rest of the stuff from the critterfest that occurs at nightime though. I love the worm bed idea. You might want to try the pineapple growing method from here (that's what we're going to try)<br />http://www.personal.u-net.com/~treetops/freeplant.htmlLindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07169632319172011782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932919.post-76261733897856246012010-04-16T09:55:00.030-07:002010-04-16T09:55:00.030-07:00I like the idea of Jello plants too!

Then they would be motivated to do the walk in the hope of finding a sweetie tree.Juliet Robertsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07035975039896986525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932919.post-51552628440879901652010-04-16T09:53:42.701-07:002010-04-16T09:53:42.701-07:00LOL!
