Keeper of the Home Giveway!

I am beyond thrilled to announce Simply Made Home’s first giveaway this week!  One of my favorite bloggers, Stephanie at Keeper of the Home is offering Simply Made Home readers a chance to win one of her three ebooks. 
 

Plan it Don’t Panic is a great meal planning guide. Without a meal plan I would waste so much time making multiple trips to the grocery store, and multiple trips are a budget buster. Stop spending too much money and start making the most of every grocery dollar. Avoid the stress and panic of what to cook each night for dinner. Serve your family more balanced, healthful meals (rather than resorting to convenience or compromise foods)”
Real Food on a Real Budget is “a primer for families who want to learn how to save an average of 20-30% on their food budget, while at the same time serving better quality and more nutritionally dense foods. Based on 6 years of hands on experience and hundreds of hours of research, Real Food on a Real Budget will teach you how to drastically lower your food budget OR significantly increase the quality of the foods that you buy (for the same amount of money).”

Healthy Homemaking: One Step at a Time was so helpful to me when I knew that I wanted to make changes in our home, but didn’t know where to start.   This is a “compilation of practical, relevant and varied "baby steps", designed to take you on a one-year journey.  One of the major premises behind the way that [it is] written it is to keep it from being overwhelming. The intent is to focus instead on the little victories in each positive step we take forward, one step at a time. “



I was floored by Stephanie’s offer for Simple Made Home readers.  You and your home will be blessed by her books.  I encourage you to consider purchasing one or two (and if you win the giveaway you will have all three!)

Here is how our give away works:  To enter simply subscribe or follow Simply Made Home (links on the right side of the blog.)  Then leave a comment telling me that you did so and which book you would like to win.  The winner will be announced on Monday!

  1. I signed up by email and would LOVE the Real Food on a Real Budget. I honestly would take them all.

    Oh, I was also wondering if you have a green replacement for your dishwasher liquid. Or what do you use. I bought some stuff and its awful.

    1. I have been using Seventh Generation, but I am going to try Trader Joe's next. I thought that this article was helpful. http://www.consumersearch.com/dishwasher-detergent/green-dishwasher-detergent

      I had heard bad things about homemade dishwasher detergent, but I have to admit that I am tempted by this recipe! (If you end up trying it and liking it let me know!)
