'A born city girl, Jessica Body comes to "Boolaroo" as a young bride, with her only experience of the great outdoors "going from the shop to the tram". She has a lot to learn... Jessie's diary tells of her struggles to overcome isolation, loneliness, drought, bushfire, storms and all the trials of a farming life. Funny, light-hearted and down-to-earth, For Better, For Worse and for Lunch is full of energy, zest and keen observations on the many differences between city and country life. Christina Hindhaugh lives in the "red gum" country of Western Victoria with her farmer husband and three children. Christina has written for Farm magazine, the Age and the West Australian, and is the author of Life Wasn't Meant to be Easy (a biography of tamie Fraser) and the bestselling I Love a Sunburnt torso. She is also well-known as a professional public speaker and travels widely around Australia promoting the lives and experiences of country women.' (Publication summary)
