Anthea Turner - Perfect Housewife

penny_less

I have had both this book and also her new Christmas book from the library,and enjoyed reading both of them but didn't really learn anything from them. More what I would call 'flick through' books.

I've got the Anthea Turner one, the Kim and Aggie one, and quite a few besides, but the one I would recommend is Home Comforts which is here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Home-Comforts-Science-Keeping-House/dp/0304356247/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1227374909&sr=8-2

When I search for that book I get the URL below

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Home-Comforts-Science-Keeping-House/dp/0304356247

Slightly different to your URL. If the ref=sr_1_2 in your link your referral ID? And do you get money if anyone buys it through your link?

I learned how to fold towels from Anthea's programme, unfortunately I still don't ever get the hoover or duster out. But I have lovely towels....

Thats funny I fold everything now like towels, teatowels, pillow slips and flat sheets like she did on the show. I have tried the folding t shirt trick but cant get that right.

I've got all three ('How To Be The Perfect Housewife'; 'Entertain In Style'; and the latest 'The Perfect Christmas').



I collect housekeeping books, what can I say?

The best housekeeping book on the market is Cheryl Mendelson's Home Comfort, which I prefer over the Anthea books.

However, the Anthea Turner: Perfect Housewife DVDs are great motivational pieces that keep you moving while cleaning....

Okay, I have them as well.

This is my first post - so please be kind!:hello:

Kind regards.

Ha! Yes I do that too - oh, I'm a disciple, practically...

Now where is that hoover, I'm sure I left it somewhere around.

No not at all! I must have a cookie or something I didn't know about. :mad: I'll change my link to the 'clean' one. Sorry about that.

In any case, whoever's it is won't earn from amazon market place, I don't think.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I think I may take a look at it in the library first. I already have the Kim and Aggie books but I like Anthea's approach better I think, from the TV show anyway.

As this has fallen from the front page of Old Style, I'll add it to the existing Perfect Housewife thread, where the book has some more discussion
