Cauliflower success!

So I haven't posted in forever because of health problems, but today I noticed something so exciting I couldn't stay away.
When I first decided to grow a few plants this winter, I was just going to try a few pots of kale. But then I saw cauliflower at the store and bought some on a whim. I wasn't sure what to do with it beyond keeping it watered, so I just decided to treat it like an experiment.
Apparently all that watering has payed off!

I have a vegetable. A tiny, adorable vegetable.

When dumping out excess water from the trays under the pots today, I noticed that one of my cauliflower pots has produced a little cauliflower. I'm so excited! I resisted eating it, so now I guess I'll just keep doing what I've been doing and wait for it to grow bigger.
