A Family Raised on Sunshine and Rainbows {Book Giveaway}

I am so pleased and honored to be able to do this book giveaway. (Be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom to enter the book giveaway!)  My grandmother, Beverly Nye, has released her two best sellers (which have been out of print for quite some time) in a new combined print.  Beverly Nye invites you into her home for a friendly visit to share exciting, uplifting and practical ideas.  She makes life a little happier, healthier and more creative for every parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, sister or brother and adds a smile to the reader's heart!  Her enthusiasm and encouragement come through on each page full of wonderful ideas. From the Deseret News:  "While living in Ohio during the '70s and '80s, Nye gained fame with several cookbooks and radio and TV shows, such as "At Home With Beverly Nye" and "The Great American Homemaker." After raising four kids, she championed the role of a homemaker as a fulfilling profession.  At the height of her fame, her book, "A Family Raised on Sunshine," was the No. 2 best seller at Waldenbooks — second only to Alex Haley's "Roots." She got thousands of fan letters and recipe requests every week."

Hi Everybody,

 The first section, "A Family Raised on Sunshine" encompasses the best homemaking advice and recipes that one could ask for.
In fact, just this weekend we hosted a "Honey Tasting" in our home and I made the following scones.  I substituted Butter for Margarine and Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Baking Mix for the flour.  Because of the gluten free flour I had to drop the scones into the oil with a 1/2 cup measuring cup since it was runny and not able to roll out like regular scones, but they were so delicious that I had many requests for the recipe!
 The second section, "A Family Raised on Rainbows" really brings together how to make your house a home.  There are directions for everything from gardening to sewing projects.


For anyone wishing they had a new book, how about one for Mother's Day?  Buy your copy of "A Family Raised on Sunshine and Rainbows" here.
Written by Rita Heikenfeld of Cincinnati.com "When I heard that Beverly Nye was coming to our area for book signings, I was more than happy. Bev was a mentor to me and, along with my mom, Mary Nader, Bev encompassed all that I wanted to achieve, both professionally and personally. In fact, Bev was the original columnist for our paper, and was THEE cook in the 80’s on Bob Braun’s show. Bev went on to national fame and retired in South Jordan, Utah. But “retired” isn’t what Bev ever did. She’s as active today as she was when she lived in Cincinnati. In fact, she’s republishing her two bestsellers, A family Raised on Sunshine and Rainbows, into a combined book. And talk about relevant, these books belong in every home. Bev was “green and sustainable” long before the terms were coined and her books and philosophy reflect this. If you like Dr. Oz, you’ll love Bev’s book – even he could learn something from this woman.
I, for one, will be purchasing the set since mine are always on loan to somebody. Her recipes are as popular now as it was when she first published it."

  3. I could always use help on cleaning... actually, not just the cleaning - the motivation! So I often look for new ways to do something, and usually a new way to do it will encourage me to get it done!
