Christmas Gifts!
Jan. 6th, 2010 09:44 pmAs of today, I've gotten 3/4ths of my self-selected gifts from my Dad and my step-mom Nancy*:
Sharpe's Rifles for my Kindle
Cordials from Your Kitchen for my homemade alcohol needs
and
Back to Basics: A Complete Guide to Traditional Skills for my homemade everything else needs
I'm still waiting on the three mini-loaf pans, but I expect them tomorrow or Friday at the latest.
Thanks Dad & Nancy!
*Translation: they got me a gift certificate and this is what I spent it on.

So far I've read the sections on selecting land for a house, building a house, and heating/powering a house. They've been good overviews that will help you figure out what techniques you want to research in more depth.
