Where it all started...

I read this book late last year and although it wasn't quite what I expected it was still really good to see someone who has decided to put a hold on their shopping for a year (except for bills and food / essentials).  It is written in the US and so you get to follow them to the snow and read about other traditional US events. 

I guess that's also what's made me decide to create this blog and have my own adventure perhaps one day I might decide to write a book (that's if I can stop laughing long enough at some of the crazy things no doubt I expect to do).
