My girlfriend said I could keep worms in the house to compost kitchen scraps. Being 5 years old at heart, I took her up on the offer instantly. That'll teach her! First, they will need a home... I hope she wasn't planning on using the rubber-maid box for anything, and that's the best use of a phone book, ever.
Now to find me some worms. You would be surprised how many garden centers and bait shops look at you cross eyed when you explain to them you need "special" worms (red wrigglers to be precise, or Eisenia Foetida if you prefer latin). I don't want to have them shipped across the country. The worm bin is ostensibly an environmental project; keeping it local should start us off on the right foot.
