Home Improvement & Design
Review:Lots of good, practical ideas. Love the idea of safe, natural products. The thing I liked least was a lack of index at back of the book. Have to look more than one place to find what I want. Her website is awesome too. Products are high quality too Read more
Review:Recently, I moved home to assist with my disabled parents. In that move, two houses were combined into one. Because of the short amount of time between my lease ending and having to move, everything just got shoved into the garage and other free space. You know the old adage - I'll just get to it later. Well later has lead to some serious stress about where to go now. To try and make some headway, I decided to purchase a book. Something to try and give me a starting point since I am seriously ov...

Review:I enjoyed reading this book the first time, the second time, and am now in the third reading. The first time is mostly oohing and aahing at the beautiful pages and the superb writing form. Then you have to start over, and really take in the true lessons KariAnne shares about living life and learning about life with God. I'm waiting to finish the third reading till I get my eager fingers on the hard cover book. Thanks, KariAnne, Tyndale, and all involved for giving the world a lovely book. Read more
Review:When I started gardening almost three years ago, I also started listening to some podcasts. Those two interests combined when I found Melissa K. Norris ([...]). I learned many gardening tips, food preservation tips and, very importantly, seed-saving tips. I couldn’t have learned to save tomato seeds the right way without her.
When I found out she was writing a book, I added it to my Amazon cart right away – four months before the release date. I am so glad I did.
The size of the book is de... Read more
Review:This book is a must-have for serious gardeners and those that live off the land. It shows you how to make your own root cellar from scratch, or how to convert a small room into a food storage room.
This book isn't just about how-to store, but also WHAT TO GROW. Not everything is best for long term storage, only certain types of particular veggies can be stored, and this book tells you what you need to grow. Read more

Review:I have really enjoyed this book! I have no problems with the author's liberal use of words that some readers might object to, and for my taste they just add to the in-your-face truth telling. I am trying to think of as many people as I can who also need this book to improve their lives. Her concept for using "20/10s" might make the difference between success and failure for some people. If a family friendly version were available I would make sure some of my younger friends and relatives got... Read more
Review:Living the Farm Sanctuary Life is all about living compassionately and provides the information and tools you need to do so. Through this book, Gene Bauer and Gene Stone have done an excellent job presenting important information in a compelling, non-preachy way. Plus, the recipes are wonderful! I had the opportunity to test one of them before the book was published and the dish received rave reviews from family and friends. I can't wait to test them all!
I highly recommend this book i... Read more
