... I tried several things this week. Having a purple thumb, actually I should say yellow thumb because that's the color all my plants turn before I kill them off. hahaha Coming home from the grocery with 2 bunches of celery, I remembered seeing this Pin on Pinterest and decided to see if it would really work. I washed the celery cut the bottom off (cut the rest up & put in water for snacks in the frig) then I removed some stalk pieces then placed in a little water & set it in the window. Well to my surprise it does look like I'm growing more celery! In just a few days there were new leaves. When it has more roots I'm going to try planting it outside. I placed it a glass on top of a tiny antique hand painted plate. I have a set of these & I love them. I always look for them in antique shops & thrift stores. I am never afraid to use my antiques or vintage items. I use them & enjoy them.
Another thing I tried this week is Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies, a No Bake, No Fat, Gluten Free Cookie Recipe. My mother has made these all my life, only this recipe you can make in 5 minutes start to finish in the microwave instead of boiling on the stove. The recipe says 20 min but that's just crazy talk unless you are walking to the store to get your ingredients! Here is the Pin & Recipe. It was so quick & simple, & such a small batch that I decided to experiment with it. I replace 1/2 of the sugar with Stevia In the Raw and they still turned out great. I also made a batch using 3/4 C of oatmeal instead of 1/2 C, even better!
