semiotic_pirateWent to a training seminar today - it was a lot of fun. I'll write it up in a separate post at a later date because I'm pretty tired right now. Gah. And it is only almost 6 pm too... Too many early mornings to be able to feel like staying up late anymore.
One of the highlights was being able to go into the Old Sturbridge Village gift shop and pick up this book while waiting for my carpool passenger to get out of the last session. It is called The Concise Guide to Self-Sufficiency and it is a most amazing find IMHO. I've only read through part of the introduction, the TOC and I am impressed, highly impressed.
I love the way amazon.com allows you to look inside the books.
It caught my eye especially because of having been doing research in the same vein for a while and my recent discovery of a collection of house plans under 1000 square feet. I even found a favorite design already. Well, a starting point for a design at least.
And, maybe because I have a fascination with built-in and concealable furniture, I really like Murphy beds and bookcase doors and strange, appealing, convertible furniture... Although, I probably wouldn't go this far even if I appreciate the idea. However, I'd probably jump at the chance to have a Yin Yang Kitchen.
