Both informative and light-hearted, the tips here include everything
from financial matters and cooking to reducing clutter and planning
fun projects for the kids. Some sections deal with particular
needs, such as caring for elderly parents, raising a child who
has a disability or choosing a pet.
A complementary website, www.franticwoman.com,
includes a message board, so frantic women can share their own
tips and ideas.
