Earth Week DIY: Growing Green Onions

In honor of Earth Week this week, and also out of sheer curiosity, I decided to put my green thumb to the test. My latest Pinterest find was about growing your own green onions. And it's just about the easiest thing you can do.

Step 1: Purchase one bunch of green onions.
Step 2: Cut green onions for use, but save the whitish bulb portion.
Step 3: Keep bulbs in a glass and fill with some water. Place on a windowsill to get some sun.

Ta-da! Good thing I remembered this when I was cutting up green onions for my turkey chili this week. It's only been a couple days since I saved the bulbs but I can already see a little bit of growth. Check back later for further updates!
