new pets


We're getting weirder and weirder here in the Matthews' house. It all started with the compost bin in our backyard (which BTW looks amazing, and is all ready for Ben's garden this summer). But the backyard compost just wasn't enough, apparently. Ben has been studying up and decided red wigglers were the next ticket to an amazing, all-natural, organic garden. So, yep, that's right, no longer a one pet home. Canberra now shares her four year status with one-thousand red wigglers, who eat all the left-overs that don't attract Canberra's interest first (pretty much anything healthy).  Honestly, worms are the most simple, thoughtless, and quiet pet I've ever owned.

Love it all!!! I love worms! THey are the only pets we've ever owned. No food to buy, vets to visit, boarding fees. They are great. Good luck on your race! What a feat! You are so amazing!

Wow, that's crazy! We just started our vermicomposting bin around the same time. Dylan loves the worms. When we check on them he whispers, "Hi murrs. Good to see you."

How are you liking them?
