Default lawn clipping as mulch question?

right now, I just have the clippings in black lawn trash bags in the back yard,
where they get REALLY hot during the day. they are only like 3 days old, and
already starting to sort of fermented and starting to smell bad. I want to do
something with them before they turn into a slimy mess on me.

should I just spread them out on the driveway (in the sun too) to dry them out,
then spread them? I would like to compost it, but don't have that going this
year either.


Since they are primarily grass clippings, you can use them
as mulch - as is. Just spread them a couple of inches (no
more) thick - they'll dry and become like hay.
