Failure

I thought it would be fun to try sprouting. You know, like alfalfa sprouts. Also, I think I my green thumb was itching since it was winter. I read somewhere recently that it was easy to grow sprouts--simply get a jar fill it with water and sprouts and refill with clean water twice daily. Simple enough. Well, I started before New Year's with high hopes and a seed package from Whole Foods (partially paid for with a long ago purchased Groupon of $10 for $5 deal). Now it's the end of January and pretty much nothing has sprouted. Oh well, I tried. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
