Finally taking the composting plunge this weekend
For some reason it's been very intimidating for me, but I'm going for it this weekend. I think I'll just use trash bin and poke some holes in it (this will work right?). It will be nice not to feel guilty by wasting food scraps everyday.

Re: Finally taking the composting plunge this weekend
Congrats! I took the composting plunge a couple weekends ago, eep! I bought a square compost bin from our county's recycling center for a discount - woohoo!
We have a countertop compost matter collector (read: clearance cookie jar) to hold kitchen scraps before taking them out to the composter. If you get one, look for something air tight and dishwasher safe. I wanted one with a metal latch but couldn't find one that would work for us... Still on the hunt for that!
I also have cloth yard waste holders (like a cloth trash can, from Target's gardening section) in two colors - red and green - to pre-sort any greens and browns we have on hand. That has helped a lot for me to stay in the game! Otherwise we just dump our food waste, shredded paper, etc. into the compost bin and let 'er rip, err, decompose.
