My gardening assistant Allan, aka my husband, snagged a couple more pallets. I have piled enough leaf mulch into the compost bins, that I needed another pallet to keep the contents from pouring out all over the lawn. I will post pictures on the weekend. I LOVE compost and mulch!!! Can you tell?

I think I must share some characteristics with your Allan - I love collecting "useful" bits of junk! My first compost bin was made from scrap timber, but now I have moved on to plastic ones (I have three).
I would love pictures of your compost system. I would also like to know how you do it. I have one plastic bin that I have set along the back sidewalk, so that we don't have to tramp on the soaking wet grass in the winter. Then in the spring I'm going to move the contents to the three bin set up.
Erin; On my blog there is a Gadget in the sidebar called "Search this blog". Why not use it to see my various posts about compost? Just enter a key-word - such as "compost", and it will find all the places where this term has been used in my posts. The gist of it is that I do very little of the work: I just stick garden refuse and veg trimmings in the compost bin and let thw worms get on with it!
Thanks Mark. That's exactly what I'm going to do! You are a godsend for new gardeners! I am keeping my eyes open for dolcelatte cheese as you recommended. It's not easy to find here. I'm going to gave to speak to the deli folks. Can't wait to try it. I have a recipe for blue cheese dressing that I want to try too.
