  • Week 11 Unboxing

    A peak summer, crunchy box! This week’s medium: The carrots came with their edible greens attached. I am going to chop off most of the greens, then slice off about half a centimeter the carrot too and put it in water. It’ll grow a few more leaves this way, and then I’ll have enough to make…
