The first reason I was drawn to this book because of the title. I mean, it has "pioneering" in it. The whole concept of a modern pioneer intrigues me.
Of course I realize reading a book about pioneering does not a pioneer make, but I hoped it would help me envision a simpler life…in a condo in the centre of a city.
Author Melissa K. Norris leaves her heart all over the pages of this book. And she not only writes about pioneering but lives and breaths it in every aspect of her life from gardening t...more

I just loved - Pioneering Today: Faith and Home the Old Fashioned Way by Melissa K. Norris!
The recipes are outstanding! I've already made the Blueberry Buckle and the sausage/broccoli/cheese/Quiche. My Hubby loved them both!
Like a homemaking storybook, Ms. Norris shares fine family recipes, along with excellent tips on gardening, cooking, preserving, cleaning, and then she gently folds in her own personal experiences and faith in God. She has a beautiful writing voice that draws you into her wo...more

Pioneering Today is a lovely book for anyone who enjoys the simple things in life. Whether it's gardening, canning or baking, Pioneering Today is filled with helpful advice and homespun wisdom for the modern woman. Melissa Norris's method of weaving devotions throughout the recipes and tips makes it a well-rounded read that's a wonderful addition to the bookshelf! As soon as I got this book, I quickly ordered two more for my mother and sister in law, knowing they would enjoy it as much as I did!
Really enjoyed this one! Lots of great recipes, household tips, and ways to use your faith in God in your everyday life.
I loved everything about this book and will refer to it often!
