Composting!

For the last month or so I've been trying to find used wooden pallets to build a compost bin. Yesterday I finally tracked some down at the local hardware store and on the way home Chris said "Why don't you just use the cement trashcan enclosure?" GENIUS!! So now I have a compost bin and an enclosure for extra leaves.

So today, April Fool's Day, begins my adventures in composting. I like specific instructions when I undertake projects, and most of what I've heard and read has been in the vein of " Just do it, you can't mess it up!" These people are wildly underestimating my abilities to mess things up. But we'll see. At least I'll get the Ziploc full of old salad/vegetable peelings out of my freezer.
