My older sister Cynthia recommended this book to me and it is fantastic. The author is actually an organic gardener so her take on housekeeping is that you set up your indoor "ecosystem" so that it requires as little work as possible, allowing you to get outside and do what you really enjoy doing.
Here are several things that have changed in our household as a result of reading this book:
threw out all our plastic cutting boards and bought another wood one
cleared kitchen counters to the bare minimum
started using white vinegar and hydrogen peroxide for ALL household cleaning
started using castile soap for everything but the dishes
using apple peels, lemon and salt instead of toxic metal polishes

Raised in a small South Dakota mining town where he learned the value of a sturdy pickaxe and native tubers, Scott is a man's man who knows the meaning of the word testosterone. Apart from devouring freshly slain beasts of the forest, Scott enjoys sharpening his tools, lifting heavy objects, and throwing a ball at a hoop suspended ten feet off of the ground. He also enjoys Romantic Era poetry and Italian cooking.
