We all cook and bring 12 servings to a meeting, and take home 10 servings. Below are links to relevant stories. I'm deaf, and assume many who would join would be hearing people, so expect most of the communication to happen online.

I have just moved to Princeton from a one-bedroom, urban apartment. Now I have 2.25 acres and an insane ambition.
