Can I have a bin full of worms, PLEASE!?!

11 Jun

All I freaking want is a bin full of worms and trash in my apartment! Seriously, is that too much to ask?!

I’m dying to get a compost bin because I feel me and my roommate waste way too much food. Unfortunately KZilla is still bitter that I won’t let her get a puppy, so she veto the composter. Ugggh! It’s not my fault I’m allergic to dogs!!!

They have some awesome bins out there that DON’T stink or leak! She thinks the worms are going to get loose and run rampant in our apt and that the smell from the decomposing food scraps are going to melt the TV. Recyclops DESTROY!

So you may have taken KZilla’s side by now, so you should probably go join her in her non-recycling crusade. But for those of you left who actually side with my plight, you rock. All I wanna do is use the worm poo to plant my pineapple plant and not have any food waste actually go to waste. I have a big problem with wasting food…there are so many people out there that are starving or lacking food and I feel so guilty if I throw anything away. If there’s a way to recycle wasted food, I’m in!

My dream composter even matches our deck furniture! How can you say no to that!!!I think I’m going to sabotage her precious TV until she lets me have my composter! Look at it, isn’t it gorgeous?! My budding pineapple plant would have the best damn soil ever to grow in! And if it’s grown in the cream-of-the-crop soil, just imagine how great the pineapple growing in the worm poo would taste!

Just call me Mrs. Dole…

Mmmmm…love chowing down on a fresh pineapple!

Pineapples are such a fun fruit. I made a chicken and pineapple dish the other day for John and he told me you can grow your own pineapple plant from the top of the pineapple. So we tried to grow our own pineapple plants! Unfortunately I did not properly take care of our plants and they got moldy and I had to get rid of them. :(

Well I got a fresh pineapple the other day and decided it was time for another attempt. How awesome would it be to have a pineapple plant in the apartment?! Fresh pineapples anyone? No shipping it in from Hawaii, awesome! :)

So here is stage one of the process and I’ll keep you updated on my pineapple plant progress!
