The No-Refrigerator Challenge, issued by Rowdy Kittens.
Now that I’m getting weekly product bushels, I wonder if I could hack this. Dairy’s not much a part of my life, and most produce is better eaten right away anyway. I’d already been thinking about this desert cooler from Africa (a zeer pot), for my little back-yard structure. No, City of Austin, I’m not building a house back there. It’s a shed… in which I happen to work and sometimes fall asleep, and in which I like to store snacks for myself and also have a sink to wash my hands after gardening, and also with a waterless toilet for… um… use with the pool, so people don’t have to go inside. Yes, that’s the ticket.
Hmm..

NIce! How’s it working so far? I want to try one of those out myself. Seems like a pretty ideal solution. What are the dimensions on it?
Thanks for crediting my picture, I did an instructable on making the zeer here: http://www.instructables.com/id/Garden-Camping-Festival-no-electricity-Fridge/
