Don T Try This At Home

Rob Krause and Daria Salamon sold their car, rented out their Winnipeg home, and packed up their two young children to embark on a 12-month journey around the world. In this dual retelling of their ambitious year abroad, Don't Try This at Home chronicles the hilarious and sensational misadventures of a Canadian family as they travel across 15 different countries in the Southern Hemisphere. In an honest reflection on parenting, marriage, and living for a year on a tight budget, Krause and Salamon take readers through some of the world's most stunning vistas while meeting the challenges of foreign customs, broken-down buses, stomach bugs, personal loss, and their often less-than-enthusiastic children.

A delicious reminder that even the chefs we most admire aren't always perfect, Don't Try This at Home is a must-have for anyone who loves food - or the men and women who masterfully prepare it.

Warning! Don't Try This at Home shows you exactly how to short-sheet a bed, fake a UFO photo, stack a poker deck, light your own farts, drag race in the streets, cook up moonshine, and much more! Until now, there just hasn't been a book that passes down the inside information that everyone really needs and wants - namely, how to make marvelous mischief. Before now, the only way to learn rule-breaking behavior was to go directly to the expert pranksters and hope they'd reveal their secrets. But now it's easy to commit random and silly acts of stupidity: just flip through this hilarious, idea-packed guide to everything naughty and disruptive! Of course, no one advocates actually doing these things (especially the illegal ones), but if you're going to go ahead and be a jack*** anyway, why look like an amateur? There's nothing more embarassing than bungling your trick. And now you won't!
