Dollar aisle garden

I love Target.  It has the best product selection of affordable items for your wardrobe, kitchen, home, etc.  I am currently obsessed with their blue corn tortilla chips and cheddar and bacon dip...perfect for homemade nachos!  But their dollar aisle is always calling my name.  Whether it be craft items or adorable party items there is always something new to look through.

A few weeks ago we bought some dollar aisle grow your own herb garden potted plants.  It sounds kinda sketchy...a potted plant, from the dollar aisle.  Would they grow?  Would they just be empty pots of dirt sitting on the counter?  Well...the photos below show that (a) they do indeed work...and (b) I can grow stuff!!  Now I know why my grandma likes gardening so much...the results.  Its so fun to come out in the morning and see the progress that they have made overnight...or sometimes just in an afternoon.
Enjoy the photos!!





They have grown so much since I shot these on Sunday.  The sunflower has popped up out of the dirt and I can see a second sprout coming up.  Currently they all have some foliage popping out of the ground.  Can't wait to see the flowers and herbs!!!
