Great idea and concept for a book. A thoroughly enjoyable read. Highly recommended. .

Nice ideas for how to start on the road to a simpler, more pioneering style of life. Not earth shattering or ground breaking, but a gentle book to ease the reader into a sustainable lifestyle.

This is a lovely book on sustainable home life - not praising the cheap life, but the frugal one, aiming for quality for less. And yes, it is doable. It sure needs some dedication, but the benefits of healthy home, food and cleaning stuff exceeds the work and it is also quite affordable (and the homemade food is so tasty!). I also use to think that many things are just a habit - so when you make a habit, lot of things just goes without (over)thinking all the work what goes into making them.
This is a Christian book, but even a non-Christian can benefit of all the knowledge (there are few of Christian-themed features, but the most of the book is about sustainable living).
The authoress does a good job of offering nice, doable tips, tricks and recipes for the homemade food, cleansing products, cosmetics and even the edible gifts. Her approach is no-nonsense, simple and very practical - and she CAN explain! She also covers a lot of details one gains only by practice.
On the other side - there are no pictures (even of the food). I am a visual type and could do with (much more) pictorials.
But I like the warm, humorous approach. Nice and useful book!

Thank you for the opportunity read and review this title! I didn't enjoy it as much as I"d hoped, and rather than post a negative review, I chose to not feature it on my blog. I look forward to seeing what new releases you have in store!
