My favorite things about this book?
Ms. Norris' writing style ~ it wasn't preachy ... she shared her triumphs and failures, the lessons she learned on the way and her faith in God so openly that I honestly felt like I was at my kitchen table, sipping a cup of coffee and chatting with a friend!
I love her stories and references to the Great Depression era. That generation sure knew how to improvise, make do, go without the extras and make things stretch as far as they could possibly go. Each tip from that era and the stories that go with it touched my heart and inspired me. Here's an example of one tip that I would never have dreamed of ... Starchy potato water can be substituted for milk when making bread. Who knew? You'll find so MANY more of these wonderful tips and "how to's" throughout this book!
Home Made is one of the BEST books I've read on going back to the basics and blending "the old fashioned ways" with today's life. The tips are fantastic and there is such a wealth of knowledge with in his book that I know I will be using it for a lifetime. I plan on gifting this book to some of my friends who have wanted to get more back to the basics. I know they're going to love it!
I received this book for free. A favorable review was not required and all views expressed are my own. Thank you to Ms. Norris and as well as Harvest House Publishers and Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review this book. ( )
