I say this because I've been around for a long, long time and am a great-grandmother. The author did a splendid job telling why it pays to be frugal. Not only did she emphasize saving money by having energy efficient appliances, there are some great tips on how to improve their efficiency. There are gems scattered through out the book on ways to save. Her frugal grocery shopping ideas are all good ones. Her recipes tickled me because she obviously cooks much like I do--she doesn't give exact amounts, just what ingredients go into the dish. A new cook might have to experiment a bit--though I think most of the recipes are pretty easy and straight-forward. Though I'm long past the child-rearing years, she has some excellent ideas for young moms and practical ways to save money. And at the end of the book their are recipes for making your own cleaning products, plus ideas for do-it-yourself home maintenance. I'd certainly recommend it to anyone starting out in married life and to new mothers. And believe me, there are a few tips I plan to try too. (I received this e-book as a gift from the author.)
