I don’t have a compost pile and not too sure where exactly I would put one. My property is kind of funky the way it and the house sit and full of large trees and bushes. I just cleared out a bunch of weeds (who knew weeds could be illegal, the mayor apparently) and found 2 chokecherry trees. I have no idea how they hid all year on less than half an acre.
I found a box of 12 of those blue quart Ball jars with the Perfect Mason, and the metal screw on lid at a garage sale last year. He wanted $10 for them but since it was the last hour of the last day he gave them to me for $5. I had never seen them before. Hubby uses them for glasses.
I am quite frankly afraid to open those jars downstairs, some of the things looked alive when I went down there last time. I guess I just have to bite the bullet and go down there with the spiders and the bugs, like Nike says “just do it” It is so bad down there the last time we had a tornado warning I loaded up all the kids and we left town and came back after it was over.
We have an old farm house from 1906 with a creepy ‘Silence of the Lambs’ basement. My boys used to freak if I sent them down there for anything, even after I put 100 watt bulbs in every fixture, LOL!
How about using those old canned goods for target practice? ;)
