I ran into a list of some of my favorite general books on housekeeping and making a home and thought I’d share here, since I’m making yet another pizza for dinner tonight and you probably don’t need another picture of that. These are all affiliate links and I’ll make a bit of money if you buy something from Amazon after clicking through to their web site. These are all older books so probably available used or at your library.
