We also have a nice little cookie jar with rubber sealing lid on our counter top. I put our scraps into the jar and my dear husband will (!) empty the jar into the compost bin each evening.
I created this handy-dandy little cheat sheet with info gathered online about what items can and cannot be composted.
Until it's second nature, this cheat sheet will be hanging on my kitchen cabinet over the compost cookie jar to remind me what to compost and what goes in the trash.

I just love nifty little forms. Maybe this will encourage me to get back to composting. Thanks!
Great sheet to help you. Composting can become a game of sorts and it makes our tomoatos wonderful!
This is great! We're not able to compost on our own, but have recently started "donating" to my SIL's compost pile. Hanging this sign in the kitchen will be a great reminder for us!
Thanks!

This is so helpful - thanks!!
I've never really understood exactly what composting is.
Stop by my blog Garibay Soup to read about a huge giveaway to the launch of my new inspirational carnival coming Monday called Just to Motivate Your Monday!!
I'm planning on starting up composting soon and I really appreciate this sheet. It's a bonus that it looks nice enough to hang on the fridge :).
