My kitchen is full of seedstarting stuff and I can't move around in there at all (very small old kitchen). I have 4 flats now under lights for my outside garden.
Once I get those things outside, then I'll think about the sprouts.
I eat more greens/salads when the weather is warm anyway.
I found some NOW packaged seeds at a healthfood store about 45 minutes away. They were less $$ than the online places.
I do have them, I just have to get motivated. The metformin kills my appetite...maybe I will get over that effect? But no sickness yet from it. Next week I start 2 a day.

Ah, you haven't started sprouting yet. Sorry about your kitties. They must have meant a lot to you. Today I am expecting a replacement Flip video camera. I will then make a new video of what I did in my kitchen. I moved a bookcase across the kitchen and I have a completely self contained sprout shelving system. It's quite remarkable. I knew what I wanted and so I set out to make it. I have a swing lamp affixed to the top shelf and it swings down for greening up and it swings up to light my kitchen. Very innovative if I say so myself. But you have to see it to completely understand what I did. My other sprouting buddies get a kick out of my sprouting videos. I tell them "wait, you aint seen nothing yet". I sound like Al Jolson, lol
So I hope this Flip comes today. I have lots of videos to make.
I'll send you a link when I do the kitchen one. You'll see my sprouts greening up and you'll laugh. It really is a great set-up. I could do this for the rest of my life.
I find sprouting very calming, very anti-anxiety and because these foods are alive, well, I know they are helping my body, with all the anti-oxidant benefits.
I think we are never too old to learn stuff.
Look at how much I learned from you.
