*About Fly Lady: I have encountered many people who absolutely live by this site. I personally found it too rigid. (No way in the world am I walking around my home in the same shoes that have crossed a Wal-Mart parking lot!) However, if you need a drill sergeant-type mentality to help you get your house in order, this site may really work well for you.

Just remember, the key to keeping your house clean is organization. A plan of action in a well-organized home makes chores a snap. :)

These books are linked to amazon.com, as a recommendation only. These are NOT affiliate links; I'm not making any money off them. As mentioned above, check your library for a copy first. If you find you really like the book enough to purchase a copy, you can usually get a cheaper, used edition through Amazon, or possibly a used book store.

Dining on a Dime
Tightwad Gazette
Homemade Alternatives
Make-A-Mix Cookbook
Freezer Cooking Manual
Taste of Home: Soups***
Social Benefits of Homeschooling
Homeschoolers' Success Stories

***If you can get a copy of this, I highly recommend it, especially if you are currently the kind of person who only serves soup from a can. The recipes are generally easy and thrifty, as well as tasty and nutritious. Just be warned! The moment you start making homemade soups, your family will never accept that canned gunk ever again! ;)

Welcome

"Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life...." 1 Thessalonians 4:11

Hello! Welcome to my blog! To borrow from a well-known saying: The family that plays, schools, and prays together - stays together. This is our family together.

Please feel free to hang around, leave a comment, and make suggestions. We can all learn from each other. :)
