Once upon a time there was a shed. It sat amongst the trees on the edge of a beautiful green kingdom. It wasn’t a normal shed and by shed standards was strange and awkward. The queen did not want the shed to store the lawn mower or the out of season sporting goods. She wanted the shed to be a place for dreams and slumber. The queen asked the king to create magic. And he did. He took the remains of other projects that were full of goodness and assembled them creating good light and air circulation. And with a little magic the shed became a cottage. The queen promised to create art in the new cottage. But in the meantime takes naps there for happily ever after.
