It is interesting to watch a person who has three different types of salt and eight different types of rice in her kitchen try to decide what is a "necessity" and what she will deny herself. I also found it funny that someone taking on such a project would spend some time before they started stocking up on things they couldn't justify buying during the year to avoid temptataion.
The train of thought is fun to watch and criticize, and very different than mine would be, but it did let me think about what I would do in her place. Unfortunately, she is a bit scattered about why exactly she took on the project (except to write a book) and that shows through her writing. Regardless, it is an interesting experiment.
