Home Comforts: The Art and Science of Keeping House by Cheryl Mendelson

5.0

I love this book. It provides basic information about keeping house for those of us who didn't pay attention when we were young or who simply were not taught. Mendelson puts the art of housekeeping into perspective--not as the drudgery of unpaid "women's work" so many of us learned to despise, but rather as an act of love and an expression of caring. I turn to this book almost daily for advice on how to do things and for inspiration when I momentarily forget the value of what I'm doing.
