    Default Neat book I got on Ebay!

    Just wanted to share that I recently started to read the book called THE AMERICAN FRUGAL HOUSEWIFE bY MRS CHILD and it is so wonderful! I can't put it down! I would tell everyone to read it! I can't wait till the little ones go to bed tonight so I can keep reading

    I'll have to look for it. Sounds good. Is this the book mentioned in The Tightwad Gazette?

    You know what I am not sure I have only grazed through TWG. But this one is so wonderfully written!

    Of course my library doesn't have it. I'll have to look at it online when there's time.

    You're very welcome. I love to go back and read this one and Mrs Beeton's over and over, so it's nice to have them online.
