Oh my god, yes, it was the letter by SHARI! And the irony is, she was joking when she said "I look forward to the next entries in your atavistic-living series. Perhaps 'People Who Don’t Wear Shoes' or 'People Who Forage for All Their Food.'" They already did an article about freegans in the past few years, so it really was "People Who Forage for All Their Food in Dumpsters"!!! And they did that article about the Cave Man movement, where people don't wear their shoes in winter while running across the Brooklyn Bridge. Two of whom work at this company...they call themselves "Paleos" or something. THANK YOU! That letter made me laugh for the second time, months later! Becky Yea Hilary!!!

I almost wrote about it on my own blog, but as gorgeous as the space is, it's not necessarily aesthetic. Nonetheless, I love the notion of a "woman cave" and I adore how she utilized so many repurposed materials! Kinda proud that she's a fellow Seattleite...mad props to such a strong, independent woman!

I know the town I lived in really only opposed OVER the garage apartments because they were concerned with carbon monoxide poisoning from the cars below. I wonder if the zoning differs much from having a basement apartment? Condo Blues, I was wondering the same thing.
