Homemaking

Those who know me know my stance on children. They're great for other people but I definitely don't want them when and or if I get married. I've been steadfast in this belief for a good two years now. But there is a side of me that parhaps if there are such things as past lives I would have been a stay at home mother. The reason I bring this up is because today I was riffling through some websites as I always do and came upon the announcment of Tasha Tudor's death. I didn't realize that I actually knew who she was until I did some research and I'm pretty sure we have one of her award winning books around here. What I didn't know however was about her country lifestyle.

Which got me thinking about some of the old fashion things I really want to learn how to do. On a realated note, I'm praticipating in a local history camp next week. I'm Jemimah Boone. My mother is posing as Rebecca Boone [a childhood hero of hers nevertheless] on the days I can't be there. The two of these things, Tasha Tudor's death and the coming of the history camp, set me off on a web based journey for all things frugal and old fashion.

I came upon some very interesting and useful websites, no matter if you're from the 1700's or a modern woman. Check some of these things out...

I'm going to set some goals for this summer and put them up in the sidebar and check them off as I go. Those who would like to join me are welcome.

You see, I thought this college class would take up all my time but I'm pleasantly surprised at all this free time I have. ExNovio was talking about using the week of vacation we have and taking a bunch of people on a road trip. I think he was joking but with him you never know...
