This has been around for awhile, but it's one of the things I've found that may help some gradproles. I did try some of the projects it suggests last year. I baked a key lime pie from scratch for my family and took pictures of us all enjoying it. I took the bus across town and back and took pictures the whole way. That was a depressing adventure. I got to see how run-down and hopeless a lot of Indianapolis is. I read a little known book by a well-known author, which turned out to be Salammbo by Gustave Flaubert. It is nothing like Madame Bovary. Anyway, 52 Projects can be an inspiring spur to action. The important thing, which the author emphasizes, is that all of the projects are inexpensive or even free. I stopped only because I got a little stuck on an art project, and I didn't own the book yet, I'd borrowed it from the library. I'd love to go back and buy it soon. The book also has a website, and if you'd like to get a free sample of all of the projects, here's the full list via the Wayback Machine.
