Synopsis

An entertaining and extremely helpful compendium of advice for all-natural cleaning, much of it gleaned from more than 200 years of The Old Farmer's Almanac . Offers recipes for household cleaners easily made at home from non-toxic ingredients, and gives tips on cleaning virtually everything in the house, from carpets to air conditions to children's ears. Includes humorous side bars on cleaning milestones, determining your cleaning personality, and mother's spit as an all- purpose cleanser, plus two-color wood-block illustrations. Annotation c.

Store Description

I have a large inventory of children's books, cookbooks, collectibles, classics, first editions, signed books, history, biographies, science, textbooks, and more. Each book to me is a "precious jewel" and I try and describe it, giving you a good understanding of its content, and also its condition. One example, I have a John Muir book where he has written in the margins all through it to correct mistakes made by the publisher. (this was confirmed by John Muir historic site for me) I have over 50,000 books and some are quite rare from 1800's to 2020's. I've been collecting books for over 50 years and now am a spry 80 and going strong. I try and get books out same day as order comes in and love it when someone writes that they's been looking for a book for years and finally found it with me!
