 No more nasty aerosols or overpriced faux- scented potpourri for us! A thrifty bitch brews up her own home scents. Mix herbs and spices with a cup or two of water. Bring to a boil , turn to a slow simmer and release the delicious fragrance. We love a mixture of cloves, cardamom, and cinnamon. Make your own combinations using rosemary, lavender, peppercorns, juniper berries, star anise, orange peels… Spa for free.
Try it and send us your favorite home brews.

It works for us since we’re mad cooks and always looking for victims, ahem, guests to eat our latest experiments. Since we’re never sure how dinner...

After spending the last few weeks doing the things we love best: cooking with friends, eating, bicycling, going to the beach, reading, learning to square dance (don’t get all nervous, we’re still our normal, not overly perky...

Have you picked up our book yet? What are you waiting for?
OK, OK, right, you’re on a budget. We’re with you, ladies. But think of it this way: for the price of one overpriced cosmo, or a quarter tank of gas, or two greasy meals at McDonalds,...
