"The Deluxe Edition of Homemaking Cottage is amazing. There are great recipes, cleaning strategies, and articles that inspire me as a parent, homemaker, wife, and woman. It is wonderful to finally have a magazine designed for homemakers instead of treating homemaking as a dreaded chore. Whether looking for fun ideas for the kids or a new recipe I know that I will find what I am looking for on the Homemaking Cottage website." ~Samantha Place

I am getting older. My hair is getting grayer, I find myself yawning earlier in the evening and those injuries and illnesses are taking longer to get over than they used to. I often ask my husband do a pair of jeans make my dimensions look more like an hourglass and less like a 747.

If you were to see me on the street it's highly likely you wouldn't consider me feminine. I don't have a very feminine walk. I feel funny if I attempt to do things like swish my hips or wear a dress. Heels only seem to accentuate my rather wide, large, flat feet.
