I was so thrilled to set up my pallet compost bin today.
Yensi (our nanny) and Luis (our gardener) helped.
Here are the photos:
I have to say — I think it is stunningly beautiful. I think Yensi thought I was a bit of a lunatic. I kept saying, “Isn’t it beautiful?”
I’m just so excited to have a place to throw my garbage. It’s been sitting around in bowls for months.
In the process of putting in the compost bin, we needed to move a lemon tree:
I think it’s much happier in it’s new spot. A lot more sun!
And we get to enjoy it here — I positioned the chairs around it so we can sit in the sun and honor the shrine of lemons.













love the compost bin, would like to drop some food scrapes some day, ?
Adam and I miss you and Kate however apartment hunting is tough, don’t know when we will have a rest …
composting is gorgeous! i was over the moon when i got mine and still am so happy to do it everyday!
Isn’t it funny how happy a simple compost bin makes us? I told Seth he is very lucky that things like this make me happy. Some women spend all their time in the mall and require diamonds and fancy dinners.
I am on the hunt for pallets. I am plaaning a 3 bin composter. Yippe for composting!
Yay! Isn’t it fun?! I found my pallets on Craig’s List.
