Do you read before or after rebinding?

I’m the type of reader who doesn’t re-read books very often and if I do it’s 10 years later. I’m getting into bookbinding now and am having a dilemma…should I read the books first to see if I like it and to understand the story before I design a cover, or should I bind it first so that I can actually enjoy my work, especially since that might be the only time I read it.

Curious as to what you all do?

Chicken Mango Bowl

~250 calories, 24g protein, 28g carbs, 7g fat

One of those “have random ingredients that I’m gonna combine” type meals. I added some garlic and ginger to the ground chicken when cooking. Also a radish (just didn’t log it because it’s like 2 calories). It ended up being a great mix of flavors and filled me enough. I’d probably do more chicken and less lettuce next time.

So there’s no mods or?

Posted an exercise prog report more than a month ago. Reached out to the mods re: that and a suggestion. No response and no mod approval for my post. Judging from the lack of prog reports in the sub, it looks like there’s just no mods anymore?

I’m planning on road-tripping late-May into mid-June. I mostly wanted to post this to see if there’s any must do things along the way or if I should make any changes.

For some background, I’ve done a few 8+ hour solo drives, one 13hr drive, and a lot of 18+ hour drives with another person. I’m sure I can do the drives, but I’m not on a huge time constraint.

OKC->Toronto
• I’ll be driving straight to Niagara Falls, hopefully with only one overnight stop near Indianapolis. Staying there a couple days and then driving to Toronto and staying a couple of days

Canada Leg
• I’ll be camping in Algonquin for a few days, then staying Quebec City for a few days, and finally Tadoussac.

Canada->NYC
• This is where I’m not too sure. I was planning on staying in Whitefield, NH for two nights but will actually need to get to NYC early, so it might have to only be 1 night. Is NH worth it for only one night? Or should I plan on somewhere else?

NYC->TN
• I was planning on driving straight through but wouldn’t be opposed to stopping along the way if it’s worth it.

TN->OKC
I’ve done this leg before but haven’t stopped much. I was thinking about Nashville or Memphis but would love some ideas. Not too interest in Arkansas cause I’ve been there a ton.
