The only thing I think they could be is soybeans-- from the edamame that was boxed, frozen, bought at Costco, probably allowed to defrost (you gotta sit and have a hot dog after a tedious day shopping at Costco), refrozen in my fridge at home, and then microwaved for 3 minutes. After surviving all that, I'd hate to have them die now-- so we're trying to figure out how to transplant them somewhere safer without shocking the heck out of them. Apparently soybeans like coffee as much as I do, They were growing in 3 inches of it.ETA: Okay, so apparently soybeans CAN'T survive all that-- when I went to dig them up I saw that they were growing out of squash shells. I had forgotten that I threw away some butternut squash guts a couple of weeks ago. Actually that's really exciting, because our family eats butternut squash by the truckload-- so if we can actually manage to grow some fruit before we kill the plants, we'll be all set for the summer (you know, butternut squash-wise) We planted 21 of the plants in our garden, and gave away 40+ more to Jamie, the Bams, and the Grzeckas. Actually, we did more of a run-by-seedling with the Gerckies-- they might not have even wanted them. Hehe. :)

Ha! Hooray for transplanted weird "trashy" vegetables! Thanks for the resulting garden donations... we'll try not too kill them too quickly.
