Good Housekeeping is a leading lifestyle media brand inspiring a monthly audience of 58M readers--including more than 6M social media followers.
“The Good Housekeeping team delivers in this impressive handbook
hundreds of ideas and tips for 'how to ‘home’ better.' The advice
comes in six sections: “Prep & Cook” covers must-have kitchen
equipment, pantry stocking tips, and easy recipe substitutions;
“Clean & Organize” features a bathroom-tidying checklist and DIY
cleaning solution recipes; “Decorate & Renovate” teaches readers
how to “brighten” their kitchen and “cozy up” their living room;
and “Maintain & Repair” offers tricks for fixing appliances and
getting rid of indoor allergens. “Enjoy the Outdoors,” meanwhile,
takes on yard care and gardening (with a nontoxic weed killer
recipe), and “Entertain & Celebrate,” considers less-glamorous
aspects of party planning: make taking out the garbage during and
after easier by lining a trash bin with several bags, the authors
advise, and turn the thermostat down before guests arrive, as the
crowd will warm things up. The advice on outfitting one’s kitchen
and building pantry meals is excellent, but it’s the extras that
set this apart: each chapter includes clever new twists, such as
repurposing a shoe rack as a vertical herb planter and using
toothpaste to clean silver. This thorough home companion will
reward readers over and over.”
