t-rash
i'm starting a compost pile as of today, my gosh. i was just prepping all the vegetables for stir-fry and looked in the trash can and the majority of what i saw was vegetable parts. bits i can't cook for us to eat. then in my head flashed that old recycling commericial that showed people throwing things into a trash can on the street and then the tag line says, "when you throw something away, where does it go?"
yeah, where does it go? maybe i've been reading too much adbusters lately or dancing on the edge of my re-occurring fantasy of turning the tv into a fish tank. i get so grossed out when i start thinking about how much we throw out. we buy the majority of our food in a raw form and cook from scratch. we do all this stuff and then throw away all these organic leftovers. ack.
the funny part is, the indoor part of the compost, 'the holding tank', is a cookie tin. pahahahaha. paul's gonna get a big surprise when he opens it thinking there's chocolate inside. tee hee.
