Without enough jars to keep all our spices safe and organized, we put a note up near the main door of our building asking neighbors for unwanted jars. Within a couple days of putting the note up we had more jars then we knew what to do with. All different shapes and sizes, the jars are slowly filling in with the color of their spices.

On several occasions we borrowed (and returned) chairs from our neighbors to sit people at a large dinner party, both the jar collection and the chair borrowing has led me to meet quite a few of our neighbors in the Marshall House building. I’ve also joined to TMO Board, Tenant Management Organization, and am about to start new project that is for and about the estate.
