The New Year is now in full swing. Kids are heading back to school, and the frenetic pace of 21st Century life is picking up where it left off prior to the holidays. I hope your holidays were both safe and relaxing, and that you and your loved ones enjoy greater prosperity and a renewed sense of peace and joy in the year ahead.

Over the weekend, I had the pleasure to be on the Happy Housewives Club, a wonderful radio program hosted by Darla Shine. As we chatted, Darla pointed out that, while there are any number of places to get information, only a handful offer practical advice in a way that helps the audience. Her program is one of those places. The Happy Housewives Club is carried on 122 radio stations coast to coast. To find out where, visit her website at http://www.happyhousewivesclub.com/.

The Farmers’ Almanac has been in print for almost two centuries and, like the Happy Housewives Club, our business has always been making life simpler and more practical for our readers. My commitment throughout 2009 will be to share our very best suggestions in a way that helps you and your family get through these uncertain economic times. Over the years, we’ve accumulated thousands of hints, tips, and recipes, and we’ve unearthed unique ways to do things so your life is made simple.

Let’s look at the upcoming year as an opportunity to rethink how we spend our resources and how we live our lives. My blog will be filled with useful gems and our www.farmersalmanac.com website, weekly newsletter and the third season of Farmers’ Almanac TV are also geared toward helping you enjoy life more and be less dependent on marketers.

Let’s make 2009 a year to remember!!
