My dear husband spent a great part of father's day sunday trying to 'install' the compost bin. Of course, we could have just dumped it in any old corner, but he believes in doing things right. He leveled the ground and made a base for it. Once he installed the bin on top, he put a layer of dried leaves from corners of our backyard , and voila... we are composting. Yesterday, when my dad came over he had a bag in his hand. They usually bring me something or other to eat and I always look forward to that. Imagine my surprise when I opened the bag and found his kitchen scraps in it, egg shells and all :) We got the compost bin for free from the Bureau of Environmental Services. I am really excited about harvesting the rich compost next year. Other than that, I harvested my first crop from my kitchen garden. Don't they look adorable? I pan fried the eggplant and the pepper right away with some olive oil and lemon pepper. It tasted sooooo good. I kept repeating to my husba...
