Sugarhouse

<p>An improbably funny account of how the purchase and restoration of a disaster of a fixer-upper saves a young marriage<br />When a season of ludicrous loss tests the mettle of their marriage Matthew Batt and his wife decide not to call it quits. They set their sights instead on the purchase of a dilapidated house in the Sugarhouse section of Salt Lake City. With no homesteading experience and a full-blown quarter-life crisis on their hands these perpetual grad students/waiters/nonprofiteers decide to seek salvation through renovation and do all they can to turn a former crack house into a home. Dizzy with despair doubt and the side effects of using the rough equivalent of napalm to detoxify their house they enter into full-fledged adulthood with power tools in hand.<br />Heartfelt and joyous <em>Sugarhouse </em>is the story of how one couple conquers adversity and creates an addition to their family as well as their home.</p>
