I was gathering the ingredients for dinner last night and reached my hand into my three-tiered wire basket to discover a lonely onion growing in my midst! "It's alive!" I exclaimed this loud for all to hear, there we 4 ears to hear this, my boyfriend, and a dinner guest (two ears for each person). They laughed and I was almost tempted not to use it for dinner. I wanted to run outside and plant it in the ground. I hope that it would give me ten onions later on this year. I do not know anything about growing onions or if I could bury an onion and expect it to grow other onions, but it seems like it would be successful. This green-topped growing onion brought a smile to my face and reminded me why I enjoy being a vegetarian and why I feel so much better eating healthier and taking better care of myself. The food I eat each and every day is ALIVE!

you could totally bury that onion and get more... if it were spring time or summer time. I'm afraid it wouldn't do much now... :(
I am laughing at the thought of hearing you scream "it's alive" though. :)
