"The ingredients that go into a home that embraces and welcomes aren't obvious, and they aren't exactly the same for every home."
". . . such homes have certain qualities in common; understanding them can help us restore much of what's been mislaid in the scramble and tussle of modern life."

CLEANLINESS
EFFICIENCY
SELF-RELIANCE
GENEROSITY
JOY
