• 30 years in the making: the touching story behind the original Lucia’s Survival Guide and Cookbook
Once NBC discovered her story, Campilongo was asked to appear on NBC’s The Today Show along with her daughter and granddaughter, giving survival tips for the domestically challenged. Campilongo said host Meredith Vieira calmed any nerves she might have had. “I think she had a sincere interest in the book and its use through several generations of my family,” said Campilongo. “I still can’t believe we shared that moment with some six million viewers.”
“The art of traditional homemaking has been lost in this era,” says Campilongo. “Not only do I hope to rekindle those ideals but also bring back together the family unit. Following my guide will ensure you live in comfort and cleanliness. Your clothing will be immaculate and wrinkle-free, but most importantly, you will EAT WELL!”
