Finally!

I think we might be getting a small break in the heat this week. 90 degrees really feels good after a week or so of 105+ doesn't it? The only good thing I can say about the hot weather is that my grass has begun it's hibernation hopefully.

And now on to more pressing concerns - I think I may be a failure at vermiculture! That's raising composting worms for those of you new to the subject. The last 2 weeks have been pretty hard on my little buddies. Their habitat looks (sweaty) and they don't seem as cheerful as they once were. I gave them new cardboard and paper and some juicy, cold red grapes. Tonite they will get a shiny Fuji apple. Hopefully, it's just the oppressive heat and not my nurturing.

Is it really possible that I have become attached to WORMS?!?
