    Coupon and IOU history

    I remember as a little girl going to Sunnyway Foods (a local grocery store) with my grandmother and waiting impatiently in line while the clerk rang our food up to see how many stamps we got that day. Then I would sit at the table while she put the food away licking and sticking the stamps in...

    Amazing 50's Dress.. but an absolute horrible buying decision! I'm in a real pickle, I bought this dress off of Etsy and the seller stated that the measurements were a 39" Bust, 36" Waist and 41" Hips. When I received the dress I was so excited because it was perfect sizing for me. I put the...

    Thank you so much Lady Day but it wouldn't be right of me to take full credit of that one :D The previous owner made the cozy and it came right along with the machine. I love it! BTW - I really like your linen closet, I'd give anything to have one with shelves so deep!

    My Mother Says...

    My mother is a gem and I am so blessed to have her in my life. She knew from the very beginning that I was going to be an eclectic child. Since the age of 5 I have always heard her tell people that I was born in the wrong century. I always wore dresses and finally at the age of 12 I bought my...

    Tomatoes were cheaper: a 1932 grocery bill

    Who wrote the book on motherhood?

    I just remember what all my friends had to go through while in labor and afterward so this is all I know. That is why I am set on a home birth. But I'm sure not all hospitals and all births are IV's, needles and such.

    Who wrote the book on motherhood?

    Hence the reason for the administration of episiotomys, if it's not an epi than it's always going to be an episiotomy. When will the medical society learn that by laying on your back with your legs in those ridiculous stirrups your body has to work against gravity. But by squatting and giving...

    Who wrote the book on motherhood?

    I've read about this and I truly believe in it. The same muscles that make love making enjoyable are the same muscles that you use during labor, so why not? Because we are fed the lie that childbirth is painful for every woman we go into the whole pregnancy/labor expecting the pain. That fear...

    Who wrote the book on motherhood?

    Well I guess I'm coming from the other side of the tracks so to say. My husband and I have been trying for 2 years now and I have been diagnosed with unexplained infertility. I am 30 years young, I see a midwife and everything I take and use is herbal/plant-based, I do not take any antibiotics...

    Your favorite hairdye

    Thank You Laura Chase. Just one more question, how long do you choose to keep it on before rinsing? My hair takes to color really quick and with henna being a natural dye I wasn't sure how long is to long...
