...because, it - you know - happens

Yay! Look what came this morning! I ordered it from composters.com last week with some babysitting money.


And I got a little innoculant to start my whole compost pile going. Barley thinks it smells GOOD.


I decided on the Garden Gourmet because I've read good reviews, it's compact, and I can hide it behind the clematis quite well.

It only took about 30 minutes to set up, including dragging the heavy box 'round to the back. Check it, 'cos this is the only time you'll find it empty.


Just in case you forget what is compostable and what is not, there's a friendly pictorial guide on the lid.


Barley is helping prepare some of the bigger sticks in our yard for the composter.


Thanks, babe!
