Mom and Dad scored pretty high on the fun-ometer today. Smores and a backyard campfire. . .That's living!

Make-shift Redneck backyard firepit! This was actually a lot of fun.

Here is a better picture which shows how Max placed the bush to hide the composting bins. I think he did a great job, we just have the rubble pile left to deal with.

This is the small amount that we've composted thus far. In the "Let It Rot!" book that I have been reading, we still need a larger amount to be added before we layer with leaves and manure. The dogs seem to think we are stashing treats for them. Yesterday, we found a rotted tomato on the floor that was confiscated by a dog and returned to us. The baby found it first though!

Here is a picture to show the progress that the composting pile is undergoing. We have 2 bins made from the stacked cinder blocks and back filled with dirt. Max planted Sedums and a bush nearby for hiding the pile. He also moved 4 flagstones for stepping out on to toss the veggies into the back bin.

This is the honey, nut, wheat loaf that it yielded. It actually tasted really good with freshly ground wheat berries.

These are wheat berries that I ground into flour. As you can see, I did this with a coffee grinder since I currently don't own the grinder that I've read about used by the pro's. It worked!
