What do you do with your ashes?

Sometimes throw some of the ashes over my roses or just into the yard. The shop vac ashes goes into yard waste bag.

I spread it over the garden and grass, especially where dogs that pass by pee as it balances the PH levels and my grass does not go yellow, and die!

Well I have enough of those spots in my yard from this drunk.

I bought an urn at a crematorium, and will periodically dress in all black and go to a random park and spread them while softly weeping.

I dump my ash in my neighbors flowerbeds to help them out.  Is that wrong?

My flower beds and compost get the ashes here, great for the ph as mentioned above.

Holy crap. I guess I'm the only one that dumps them in the trash can.

Really funny thing is I wouldn't put it past @guitarec.  If he does, I'll grab a few pics

Mine end up in the garden or the yard. The "flower bed" close to the grills is looking a bit too grey. Need to spread it out more.

I perform an artistic modern dance as I shake the ashes into my fire pit.

I put most of the ashes in our lawn waste bin which is picked up weekly.   I've also sprinkled some around my hydrangeas.

I make lye.

I would say I make lye but I'd be lying.

I hope one day my wife spreads my ashes someplace cool. For now I'd like to remain non-incinerated.

This is no lie.  I'm actually at this very moment making sodium carbonate from sodium bicarbonate.  It's very alkaline and essential for making ramen and pretzels.  The sodium bicarbonate everyone makes inferior foods.
