It's funny to read this now. So much of her advice is dated terribly, but I did learn some things. I don't think I will be cleaning my car, bathroom or anything else with turpentine, however. My favorite quote was in the introduction. "And, don't forget gals...the second wife usually has the maid!" Of course, muy husband had to point out that I am the second wife and I do have a maid.

At this point, 60 years after the publishing of this book, much of it is irrelevant or wrong. Products have changed, culture has changed, and most of the tips just don’t really work anymore. That being said, it was highly entertaining, I felt very domestic while reading it, and SOME of the tips were very good and useful. Dear Heloise, I can’t decide if you would be horrified or thrilled by the opportunities and options we have today!
