Here is the book summary:
Homemade Shouldn't Be Hectic
Do you wish you could slow down and create a home you and your
family love and enjoy spending time in? Melissa K. Norris, author of The
Made-from-Scratch Life and voice of the Pioneering Today podcast,
offers down-to-earth tips and guidance to help you learn how to...
·
bake old-fashioned recipes (everything from biscuits to
shepherd's pie) with quick, stress-free steps
·
grow, harvest, and preserve culinary and medicinal herbs (with
DIY tutorials for soaps, salves, and balms)
·
make your own cultured and fermented foods at home following
simple instructions for buttermilk, sour cream, sourdough, and more
·
simplify your routine and declutter your home with room-by-room
guides and Depression-era wisdom
Open your heart to God-given rest and discover practical and
tangible ways you can craft your home into a refuge for yourself and the ones
you love.
And now, my review:
From the Great Depression to good old-fashioned hospitality
to homemade delicious recipes from scratch of family hand me downs, this book
is amazing. I thought that Melissa’s
sharing of what she has learned and is holding onto herself is inspiring. I found her sharing very open and I was
blessed to hear her experiences. She
really helps with what a home looks like if in the right balance. Encouraging that last minute guests for
dinner is a welcomed experience if balance is in place in the house… YIKES!
A healthy alternative, with a frugal agenda, to all the processed foods
in the store is SO needed in our culture today. Way to go Melissa, A+ for this one!
I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest
review.
