Still Composting Away.

I started composting about 10 months ago.  I'm still going strong.  It's actually a very easy habit to get into.  It's cost me ZERO dollars.  And it's something that I don't even think twice about now - when I cut up vegetables or dump my coffee grounds - they just go into my little compost bin.  When it's full, I empty it outside.  Even my husband does it - and he's the most anti-organic person out there. 

How I did it?  I grabbed an old raggity garbage can (we had 6 of them - we didn't need 6 garbage cans).  I drilled like 100 holes in it with my husband's cordless drill.  I put the lid on it, and VOILA!  A Compost Bin. 

I'm on my 3rd round of filling up this bad boy.  The compost doesn't decompose as fast in the winter.  But I was able to put it relatively close to my backdoor (no fruit flies and other weird bugs around it in the winter). 

I'm getting excited about gardening again.  Why?  I don't know.  I want to be better than last year.  I think I'll do more tomatoes.  Maybe I'll experiment with random things.  I don't know.  I still have about 5 months until I can plant so maybe I should find something else to get excited about.
