A Home Companion details Wendyl Nissen's year-long journey as she challenges herself to live a life more like her grandmother's. During the year, she returns to old-fashioned ways of living, making her own beauty products, growing her own food and trying not to have her life taken over by her three chickens Matilda, Marigold and Yoko. This book describes each home discovery as it happens - both the triumphs and the disasters - while Wendyl slowly sheds her corporate life, takes to wearing op-shop finds and forgets to straighten her hair.
This is a book for any woman who finds herself yearning to get her hands covered in soil, rid her house of nasty chemicals, nurture her family and become a green goddess - even if it's just on the weekends.

"This is a charming, easy read: Part memoir, part home-making guide part manifesto for a healthier life." - Eleanor Black, NEXT magazine.
