Take a moment to check this picture out….
(And while you are doing that, pardon the fuzziness, it’s with my phone, which isn’t one of those fancy phones).

Any ideas what it is?

Wait? Did you say those are beans?

In a sink?

Interesting?

Oh, then those green things would be?

That’s right bean sprouts.

Yep, some fabulous kids (again with the need for that sarcastic font), took apart some mole models for mole day (please just smile and nod like you know what I’m talking about).  And, they thought the best place for those beans would be my sink.

After returning from a week of no school (so nine days without light), I was greeted by these lovely green plants growing in the sink.  And, they pretty much start at the bottom of the drain which is about 3 feet lower.

Wasn’t that nice?  They got me a plants for Christmas!  Ha.

    Now you know why we sprout beans with the kindergarteners. They are no fail! I think you should leave them and see what kind of harvest you get.

  11. Hahahaha. We did that in our bathroom sink after Halloween. We washed the pumpkin seeds in there and some fell down the overspill and started growing out of the emergency drain opening by Thanksgiving. My mom was not pleased! 😉

  19. Wow, that is a hardy plant! That is probably something that would still die in my house knowing my black thumb though LOL!

  20. So are we officially old when we see something like this and say "those damn kids"?

    Yeah?

    I thought so!

    Here's to being old! 🙂

  21. Too funny.
    What is even more funny is that fact that you label it "damn kids".
