miniature greenhouse

This year I decided to try starting all my herbs and vegetables for my garden from seed. I usually buy seedlings around May 1, but I thought it would be fun (and a lot more cost effective) to try to start my plants from seed. So I set up a little greenhouse in the dining room by our sunniest window. A little messy looking, but oh so nice to see some green popping up during this gray, snowy winter! And it's only temporary. So far almost all my herbs have sprouted, some escarole just popped up yesterday, and Maddie and I just sowed a whole bunch of green onions, marigolds and nasturtium. I'm starting lettuces today, and soon I get to start tomatoes and peppers--yay!
