I packed up my belongings and moved into a new apartment in Seattle, WA. It was a far cry my New York apartment, but what it lacked in mice and loud neighbors, it made up for in privacy, security and a washer/dryer. We needed those back in 2009 when we wore clothes. I took advantage of the abundant thrift stores and the lessened chances of bed bugs in my new locale and got some great used furniture. After some paint, sewing and deep cleaning, I was completely and inexpensively outfitted.

Now all I needed was a massive food storage.

Still there was something missing. I decided that the missing element was:

a) that I just needed more projects to practice on. (page 10)

b) the pitter patter of little feet. (page 2)

c) Western flair. (page 5)
