Why Didn't I Think of That? Wednesday

Each Wednesday I'll share a tip to make your week go more smoothly or just make you say "aha!" 

Just in time for your Thanksgiving festivities: if you're peeling a bunch of potatoes/carrots/other veggies, spread a couple of sections of newspaper on the counter or table. Peel directly onto the paper, and when you're done, put the whole thing in the compost pile. Easy cleanup and good for your compost!

  1. Great idea for automatic compost building! Sometimes I also put my veggie debris in a freezer bag so I can make veggie stock later.

  2. Or you could just not peel the potatoes. All the best nutrients and flavor are in the skin.
