Tomatoes in my bananas?
Thursday, May 8th, 2008So we have a little banana plan in the office and I tend to throw out the washed out remains of my lunch bowl on to the plant. It’s either the remains of some tea, or water with a bit of potato starch etc all vegetable stuff nothing crazy, I noticed this week that we have 4 mysterious sprouts coming up in the banana plant pot! I think they are tomatoes?? It’s the only thing I could think would be in the wash water of my lunch to create a sprout! I’m pretty excited to see them grow! I’ve also read that it’s best to water tomato seeds with warm water, which I’ve in inadvertently been doing because I boil water and pour it into the lunch bowl to help get the sticky bits off! Anyway, I’m hoping the seeds survive and we have some tomato plants in the office 
Also, listening to NPR I came across this very interesting blog. It’s written by a woman in Cuba, about life in Cuba. Here is an article discussing what her blog is about, and about a recent journalism award she won. It sounds very insightful and I’m interested to read her posts.
I’m also excited about the upcoming Folk Festival here in Seattle! I’ve been pretty busy with work the last few weeks and hoping things will be a little more calm by then and I can go enjoy a fun weekend! Anyway, that work-crazyness isn’t over yet! Later!
