I'm hoping to cook my way through it, though I think there are some later chapters where he talks about cooking /surviving in the wild as well as some crazy molecular-gastronomy recipes I might not be able to do or afford, but we'll see how it goes when I get there. My plan is to post about it as I go.
We've made some progress on the garage. We recently started going through my old Magic: The Gathering cards with plans to sell them off. I'm not sure how much money we could actually get for it all or what the money will go towards, but the way things are going we've got some time to think about our options. In keeping with the selling-off-stuff motif, we've planned a garage sale for August 23-24. It'll be over at the Beeby's house and include our stuff, their stuff, and some of the Malecha's stuff. I created a Tumblr page for it, we'll see how well that goes.
