Composting
What do I do with my kitchen scraps? Why do I freeze them? Here's where my frozen kitchen scraps go: into a flower pot with some soil!
Why?? This is my tiny little effort at composting, a tiny little effort to reduce the amount of rubbish that I throw into the rubbish bin. I first attempted composting in a closed container under the kitchen sink. As it was a closed system, I had to open it up and stir it every day to avoid anaerobic decomposition. Then I got lazy and didn't stir it for 1 week..... URGHHHH..... stink stink stink!! So the closed compost bin was banished from the house!

How about trying out composting? You reduce the amount of rubbish and get some fertiliser at the same time!
