ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Isabella Beeton

Isabella Beeton was a lady who lived a long time ago in England, over 150 years ago. She liked to cook and keep her house clean and tidy, and she was very good at it. She wrote a book called "Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management", which had lots of helpful tips for other ladies to follow.

In her book, Isabella gave advice on how to take care of a house and family, including how to clean and organize things, how to buy good ingredients for cooking, and how to make yummy meals for everyone. She also wrote down recipes for delicious foods that people could make at home, like cakes, stews, and soups.

Even though Isabella lived a very long time ago, her book is still very popular today! People still use it to learn how to take care of their homes and families.
