A nice centrepiece

Maybe because I grew up in a farm surrounded by fresh flowers, I don't have a habit of buying flowers. When I'm expecting guests, I jazz up the home using other creative methods like growing wheatgrass or barley grass. They make a great centrepiece and are quick growers too. The best thing is, they're edible.

To usher in the Lunar New Year, I decided to sow radish seeds in some glass jars. I feel it is an auspicious thing to do. Radish seeds germinate within days and they're very decorative and delicious. The sprouts in the photo are about a week old.
