Many thanks to Jenny at the wonderful blog Little Green Notebook for the Restoring a House in the City book giveaway, which ends February 4 at midnight. I love reading all the comments about the dream homes people would love to restore. As for me, I live in Brooklyn but wouldn’t it be fun to restore an old town house in Savannah or Charleston? And a farm house too, while I’m at it.
