My birthday present from my inlaws (sorta, they sent me money) is a kitchen herb garden and a window box of flowers. I bought seeds, so I could get a greater variety of flowers, and the already grown ones looked kind of sad after being out in all the wind we get in Rexburg. I planted them on Monday (made a huge mess in my kitchen. Unusual, I know

), and was all set to wait for 7-20 days for all my different kinds of flowers to come up. Now, I knew it would be at least a week before I started seeing shoots, and yet I was so impatient to see them come up. I literally checked them every couple hours, but was still resigned to wait a week. Imagine my surprise when there were little green spots on my herb box! It looked like green sprinkles on a chocolate cake. Close examination of my flower box showed several little shoots coming up there, too, after only 4 days in the dirt! I'm impressed with my little seeds.
