guest blog / Julia Black: Sweet, stylish and scrappy

After a long weekend full of food, entertaining, and more food, I found myself going to and from my garbage and green bins as often as I was greeting family and friends. Ah, the joys of Canadian Thanksgiving! Now, I'm all for daily activity, but when it's motivated by the need to rid the kitchen of a vile smelling green bin, I have a problem. So, for those of us who realize they have a bitter sweet relationship with their kitchen scraps I have found a stylish and sensible solution: the Countertop Compost Pail from the nice people at Williams Sonoma. In either a chic white ceramic or smart brushed stainless steel it'll hold a gallon of scraps and will not stain or absorb any odors. The carbon filter that sits inside the lid prevents odors from being released, so the whole thing can be fashionably stored on a countertop (way more attractive than that ugly plastic bin we've all been using!). Better still, it’s dishwasher safe! So seriously, take a smart step and make one of these crocks a way sexier home for your organic waste. You might just find that relationship you have with your kitchen scraps becomes a little sweeter!

I am seriously going to start using all of that! Thank you so much, I am not even kidding! There is nothing that I hate more than coming up with content all the time to barely keep our real estate blog up. It's just so time consuming - so thanks again!
