I swear I'm gonna compost!! I swear!!
>> 8/14/09

Everyday, as I scrape leftover food into the garbage I tell myself that this is only temporary until I get my composting-self together. Today I found a recycled plastic kitchen composter at GreenHome.com. This little dude (which was only $21) provides a temporary home for your uneaten food until you add it to your outside composter. Which I still don't have....I should probably get on that. But I'm at least one step closer people.
In San Francisco, their badass mayor helped get the nation's first mandated recycling and composting law for business's. Not sure why the dude below is so sad about it, but i'm pretty pumped about it!! Can't wait for Florida cities to pass similar laws. 
It's also kinda laughable that I seriously think that one day I can pull off an organic veggie garden and put this composting to use. I have a black thumb and every garden I've started turns to death. If you looked in my yard right now, you would probably think that crack heads live there. It's quite sad and embarrassing. Being a huge pregnant lady makes yard work kinda impossible right now. I guess I am delusional to think that somehow I'll find more time for the yard after the baby comes. But here's to optimism!!

You go girl! I am waiting till I can afford a proper compost thingy. I am not stirring muck. I want one that you like turn upside down and it mixes it up! Our yard sounds the same. I would love to rake and pull weeks but it is hot and hard to do with a 4 year old and a baby. :) I tried when preggo and just couldn't cut it outside in the heat.. maybe this fall I will do better.
Awesome that you are going to compost. I've been composting myself for quite a while now, using the Bokashi bin, and it is great!
I've cutted down my kitchen waste by about 50%, how about you?
Cheers,
