    What a view from your hill!
    Love the green stairs and I would love to taste some of your fresh veggies...
    Just saw the kittens from yesterday post....I really hope they will be allright.
    Have a great day, Jeannette

    Beautiful produce, but I must admit that I'd love to see a better image of your compost pile: I can't quite make it out!

    Beautiful pictures - what a great view from your hill. I don't think I've ever seen an onion flower before; it's really exquisite.

    Oh, your backyard is so lovely! I am thinking of making small compost.. I've red an article and found out that I could make it on my balcony. The only thing, I am concerned about is the smell... Does it stink??

    Wow!
    Thank-you so much for your responses.
    I must come clean and admit that Tomory is the green thumb- and really does the majority (as in 99%) of the yard work.

    Natsumi & Fuoriborgo;
    We actually have a compost bin, made out of a re-used pickle barrel we found on Craig's List.
    If you do it correctly, compost just smells like dirt. It shouldn't stink.
