A friend called us to get some mint plants. We got chocolate and regular mint from her. The mint plant attracts the good bugs and lady bugs. I love seeing lady bugs hanging around. We will plant them with the potatoes tomorrow.
April first we will plant the cat grass and the cat nip. Last year they came up really fast so hopefully they will come up fast this year to.
Some interesting facts:
The giraffe is the tallest land animal.
The whale is the largest sea animal. It can grew to be 108 feet in length.
The water in bottled water does not expire. It is the bottle that expires.

I've never heard of chocolate mint. You learn something new here every day. Have a good day.

@LindaOHio Do it just smells like mint. There is no difference in the smell to me.

Honey and water never expire but can be contaminated by the plastic containers they in. Giraffes and Whales are awesome, people should go see these amazing neat creatures.

Hahaha , the bottle expires! That's interesting. I've never known that.
I'm glad you shared interesting facts with us.
Enjoy planting the mint plants and potatoes tomorrow.

It's sunny out here but only 4°C/40°F and not supposed to get much warmer (9°C/49°F) so probably won't be spending much time outside today or the rest of the week.

@jstory07 I buried some sprouty potatoes the other day when the weather was nicer.

I knew about the bottled water, it never made sense for water to expire, but that also means water can 'absorb' some plastic, and we may end up drinking that concoction. 
I love mint, I don't mind it can be an infesting plant at times. I didn't know it'd also attract good bugs.

It always reminds me of mint chocolate chip ice cream!

I like all kinds of mint. I did not know that about the bottle for bottled water.

Yeah, the plastic bottle starts to break down and put bad things in the water. My sister called me a couple years ago to tell me that because she knew I reused a water bottle over and over. I had known that, but it’s a good reminder.
If whales were tame, would you ride one?

I am considering getting some cat nip with my grocery order in April to see how my cats take to it and then growing some on my own,
