Synopsis
In hard times like now, a return to basics is essential; taking care of our home to reconcile work and family, and also to enjoy our free time and friends. And in our busy lives, home is more and more a stabilizing force which brings us peace. This book spells out the keys to organising oneself at home, getting the most out of household tasks and achieving a warm environment. It offers attractive suggestions both for those at home full-time and for those who only devote part of their time to the home. The author, a journalist who has fully dedicated herself to looking after her home, illustrates this with personal stories which make for both a stimulating and enjoyable read.
