the Trash vitae

Trash is the editor-in-chief of an independent Colorado micro-publisher/ design studio. I dabble in digital photography, the lost art of film image making, and guerilla digital video. DrMAC Studios specializes in books and videos on self-reliance, gardening, dumpster diving, urban foraging and living off the excesses of others.

people actually buy this stuff

bfast- pb and honey butter burritos, orange, coffee
lunch- can of dumpie found chunky chicken and sausage gumbo, fruit and water
dinner- leftover chicken wings, mashed taters, beer

I read a story this morning about how, even with the economy taking a nose dive, people are still going to natural grocers and buying organic.. good for them. pile up the debt, since the majority are using the credit card to pay for them. Trash prefers to get his greens and veggies from the back door shopping . Granted most of the time they aren't as pretty displayed as the pic above. But its the same food. I am just not paying for it. Rather than caring so much about its display why not lower the prices and leave it as delivered from the fields.

Anyhow since the weather was warm yesterday, its supposed to cool into the 30s today, I turned compost bins to let the new stuff I have added during the last cold, snow start cookin
underneath. All the bins are lookin pretty good. The water tanks are about 3/4 full and the snow melt bin is about half full, considering its use by the birds and squirrels taking a drink or two. I filled the bird feeders and squirrel bowl with leftover fruit rinds, carrot tops, lettuce leaves and some leftover seed. I enjoy sharin the wealth.
