Well, recently when I was at a friend's house, I noticed that she had something growing in a glass of water on her windowsill. Upon closer inspection, I realized that they were green onions. "What's that all about?" I asked. "Oh, it's something I saw on pinterest," she said.
-- Brief interjection here. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE pinterest? I get so many great ideas from it. It's AWESOME! Ok, I think that will be the subject of my next blog. Interjection over.--
"You can put your used green onions in a glass of water, and the roots will grow and so will new shoots of onions," she explained. Really?? I had no idea. So I decided to try it. And guess what? It works! Amazing! They grow really fast, too.
The onions on the right have been in the water for only 2 days.
The ones on the left were put in last night.
Do you know how many times I buy green onions, or scallions, for a recipe, only use one or two, and then the rest go bad?! What a waste! Now I can regrow my own instead of buying them all the time. And, if unused ones start to wilt, I can chop off the green part and grow fresh ones! I don't know how many times you can do this, as this is the first time I've tried it. The roots grow quickly, so before long, I'm sure they will overtake the glass of water. Maybe the roots can be trimmed, too? Hmmm...I guess I'll have to experiment. Nonetheless, this is a handy little trick that I plan to use. Granted, green onions are on the cheap end of the spectrum when it comes to fresh produce, but I'll take it. Try it for yourself. It's always nice to have green onions on hand!

“When I was introduced to Mr. Lee Ben ( A Loan Officer), I was entering the market as a first time home buyer.My needs were a bit different and I had loads of questions, before he sent me my pre-approval letter, he called to speak with me about what it meant and what could change. He made himself available to me at pretty much any hour via email and texts, he was very responsive and knowledgeable. He’s also very straightforward, I explained to him what my expectations were in terms of closing time and other particulars. He said he would meet those expectations but he surpassed them. I closed so quickly my realtor and the seller of course were excited about that. But as a buyer I appreciated being walked through the process in a succinct yet thorough fashion. From pre-approval to closing- the journey was so seamless and I consider myself lucky because I’ve heard horror stories about the internet . I recommend A loan officer ben lee contact email: 247officedept@gmail.com & Whatsapp Number :+1-989-394-3740 to anyone looking for a loan in any market. Everything was handled electronically expediently and securely.
