Full disclosure: I haven't cooked anything from this book and mainly just read the info-parts and the footnotes. Alton Brown truly does live in the footnotes.
I will say, reading this cookbook is just like watching Alton Brown's content, only, ya know, staring at sheets of paper and hallucinating his voice in my head rather than watching him move around with his voice coming out of the speakers. I definitely count this as a good thing. I learned a few things and reviewed a few others (as a long-time consumer of Alton content, I've seen a few things he went over in the book before reading the book).
I will probably cook some things out of here in the future. I already swear by his recipe for sugar cookies, so... yeah. Solid, informative, and fun read for any fan of Alton Brown.
In Other News
I have finished my "Harvest" Project over on OviPets. They are part of my Digi's Miscellany Project Line. These guys took me about 11 months to finish. I was originally thinking I'd come up with a better name for them as I was completing the project, but I never did so... yup. Harvest it is.
In much sadder news, I was informed yesterday that my Paternal Grandmother passed away that morning. We weren't close at all, but... yeah. Still sad.
