REALLY brown banana peels

I do love my compost bin. It makes me happy to fill the bin with waste and not my kitchen trash. I used to feel so bad about throwing out food that the family had failed to eat but, having a compost takes the edge off that pain. I have found that when I plan my meals weekly (I keep a blank calendar on the fridge for menu schedules) I throw out that much less. Not only am I saving food waste, I am saving wallet waste.
I just came inside from turning that dark black warm goodness of compost. Boy do my flowers love it!
