How I loved this book!!! I hate to post it and give it up (I almost didn't!) I am a LI girl and Darla has the LI attitude and some great advice. Excellent reading and you won't be the same after you've read it, I assure you!

A quick read for busy moms. The author encourages women who are stay-at-home moms to put on some lipstick and enjoy your home and children. So what if the house isn't always worthy of the "Better Homes and Gardens" photographers, you are raising kids not furniture! Includes some recipes and basic housekeeping tips. The book is not my favorite on the topic, but might just be the encouraging word that you need!

The author has a lot of good and valid points, I suggest reading the book and taking from it what you want to incorporate into your life. I would not recommend this book to anyone that is a career mom and values their job.

I would not read it again unless I was looking at the recipe section again. Honestly, it kind of drags and you can't figure out why the author is still ranting on the same thing for 15 pages.
