-
Women. I’m not a monk, and it’s really hard to find a woman who wants to live in the woods, especially when you live in the woods.
-
Empathy for the rest of humanity. Can’t make the world a better place from the woods.












If I use it multiple times a week (like the coffeemaker and toaster), it lives on the counter. Things that only get used occasionally (like the stand mixer and food processor) live in the cupboard. Basically if it isn’t going to get used again this week, it gets put away.
