On the other hand, I've now made the gravy and the potatoes.
My compost is still doing OK. It's a bit too moist. I've added some shredded papers and cardboard to help dry it out. T can't believe that it's so moist after the lack of rain. But it's all the kitchen scraps that are pretty moist (plus the occasional liquid from steaming veggies). Of course, not much will go on with it over the winter, except mechanical stress and possible leaching of nutrients into the soil beneath. I saw no insects in it. The low tonight is supposed to be below freezing. On occasional warm days, worms might come to near the surface.
We need to have something other than leftovers tomorrow (even though there are plenty of leftovers).
