Being Home: Discovering the Spiritual in the Everyday

Summary: A beautiful meditation on the real meaning of home
Review: Beautiful to read and to look at, BEING HOME is a celebration of the sacred ordinary and the domestic arts. I have given copies away as housewarming gifts, and continue to refer to my own well-loved copy again and again, whenever I need a gentle reminder to appreciate the gifts of being home. In Norris's eyes, the simplest household objects become holy icons, and the most ordinary "chores" become acts of reverence. She makes us view our surroundings with new eyes. If you're a homebody who longs to find words to express the soul of the domestic arts, this book is for you.
