Giveaway Extended - The Good Life for Less Review and Giveaway


MomAdvice.com is one of the first blogs that I began reading many years ago.  I immediately felt a connection to Amy Clark because she was a mom with small children like me.  I began to read her blog almost daily and loved how she always found thrifty ways to have fun and entertain with her family.

I was thrilled when the Penguin Group contacted me and offered me a book to review.  I couldn't wait to receive it.  As soon as I unpacked Amy's book, I opened the cover and began to read.  I read the whole book that evening.  I simply could not put it down.  Her book made me feel like I was have a conversation with a friend. 

Amy's book truly does provide ways to Giving Your Family Great Meals, Good Times, and a Happy Home on a Budget.  I especially loved the selection of recipes she included in Chapter 3 and how she keeps a clean home in Chapter 5.
