Avocado From Seed
Have you tried to grow avocado from seed that you bought to eat? And it never grew. I was in the same boat. This time I planted in summer in a pot and forgot abt it. It took forever but finally it did come up. It takes more than a month for it to sprout and then to see some green leaves seems to take few months. I was gonna use pot for something else when nothing appeared but then I dug seed and saw it had sprouted so I buried it again. And it did grow.
If you like to have house plants, then this will cost nothing . And it’s fun experiment.
So keep patience and forget abt it after planting. Also try in Summer , Spring and keep planting all avocado seeds after eating .

Sweet Potato Masala
Now in this age of Insta pot and so many cooking gadgets , meals are easy to prepare, isn’t it ? Sweet potatoes with spices taste good and you can eat it as a side dish just like that too. Recipe is from vahrevah. Here’s the link:
When you don’t know what to make for dinner , I like to boil , steam something even if it doesn’t feel appealing. Because when you get hungry and there’s nothing else you can make , it will be handy. So steam the sweet potatoes in your insta pot just enough so you can chop it on 1 of those days.
- Heat coconut oil, crack some mustard seeds. Add urad dal , torn red chili, curry leaves, turmeric and red chili powder.
- Now using mortal pastel crush cumin seeds and then garlic. Make this before heating oil and add this mixture in oil.
- Mix well, add chopped sweet potatoes, salt and mix.
- Garnish with cilantro if you like.

Marigold From Seeds
Dollar tree had flower seeds 2packs for a dollar in fall and so I had bought them. Wanted to try out flowers from seeds. Other pack I bought was Dahlia. And both of them grew nicely and they are quick. I had emptied both pack in 2 pots and lots of plants came out.
Merigold I transferred to a big pot and Dahlia into ground. They are doing good and I see buds on them too.
Try out if you have never grown flowers from seed. They seem to be very easy.
Enjoy!
