Soya

I built a temporary sink in our kitchen so we could do dishes in and have a little counter space to work on. The bag hanging above the sink is a portable shower from Canadian Tire. You fill it with water and hang it outside. The sun heats up the water. We use it for rinsing the dishes. We don't yet have running water (I need power!!!!)


Our crawlspace was sprayed with a soya based foam. It is an ecological insulation made from renewable vegetable oils and recycled plastics. It turned out great. I'm sure it will do a great job keeping our heat in, in the winter.

I just love these sunsets!

Hi Guys,

Hello from Burlington! Several of the potters have been watching your progress with great interest. Thanks for sharing the step-by-step process. It's almost like we're right there with you (without all the hard work, of course!) More pics of the 2 of you please! Hope you're doing well Catherine. We talk about you often during our Tuesday nights at the BAC . . .

hugs
Monika
