Worms.jpg

My worms are here! One pound of red wigglers, which I’m told should be about a thousand of them. I’m also told I will grow to love them like little pets. At present they just give me the willies.

I mean, look at them. 

Ew.

But apparently they’ll munch their way through my kitchen scraps and churn out “black gold” for my garden beds, so, okay. I’ve set up a little nest for them and commited to giving them a lifetime of tender loving care.
