homemaking post (from several blogs)
i'm having a problem with my keyboard, in particular, my shift
keys. both of them. so this post may seem strange, with
poor punctuation and no capital letters. i got this from page's
blog, but i have seen it all over the place. looked like fun. Aprons – Y/N? If Y, what does your favorite look like? i
have one for shop work, it's denim. other than that, no, but i
can see where they would be useful, especially when making bread Baking – Favorite thing to bake bread, but i really enjoy anything to do with cooking. i really enjoy kneading bread though. Clothesline – Y/N? Yes, one indoors, one outdoors
Donuts – Have you ever made them? Not since i was a kid, but they sound good. i should get a recipe Every day – One homemaking thing you do every day clean up anything polly knocked over during the night
Freezer – Do you have a separate deep freeze? not yet, although i could really use one. Garbage Disposal – Y/N? no, but i'm planing on getting pigs, would they count.... Handbook – What is your favorite homemaking resource?
encyclopedia of country living, joy of cooking, lots of cookbooks Ironing – Love it or hate it? Or hate it but love the results? i
only iron things i'm about to sew. well, i have a silk shirt i
iron for job interviews. it's relaxing. i wouldn't say love
or hate. Junk drawer – Y/N? Where is it? junk drawers... i have a junk room. dozens of junk drawers there. Kitchen – Color and decorating scheme working
on a morrocan color scheme. oranges and golds and reds. i
like bright colors. lot's of chicken stuff, including curtains
and a table cloth
Love – What is your favorite part of homemaking? cooking, especially for friends and family Mop – Y/N? yes, when i have water. once every couple days Nylons – Wash by hand or in the washing machine? ok, i'm pretty sure this one doesn't apply to me... Oven – Do you use the window or open the oven to check? I do both! mostly open though. Pizza – What do you put on yours? seriously.. artichoke hearts, bacon, chicken, mushrooms and tons of garlic with a pesto sauce Quiet – What do you do during the day when you get a quiet moment?
Read or blog or surf the net or play poker online. probably spend too much time on all but the first.
Recipe card box – Y/N? What does it look like? post it notes on the wall above my toaster and coffee pot
Style of house – What style is your house? chaos
theory archetecture. it started as a homesteader cabin in 1876,
and has been added onto at least twice, some of my siding is actually
old wooden election signs. four different colors of paint, not
including election signs, three different roof styles, two metal one
asphalt. it's going to take a lot of work. Tablecloths and napkins – Y/N? napkins, yes. tablecloths, only when company is over. Under the kitchen sink – Organized or toxic wasteland? had
to look... pretty bare. just a couple jugs of vinegar, a bunch of
sponges, and some dish soap. i keep the really bad stuff in my
junk room, like lye and bleach and paint thinners.
Vacuum – How many times per week? rarely. don't have carpets or rugs, except in my bedroom, which gets vacuumed about once a week. Wash - How many loads of laundry do you do per week? two, one dark one light. X’s – Do you keep a daily list of things to do that you cross off? no, but i have lists for other things, what to get at the hardware store, for instance. Yard – Y/N? Who does what? i do everything Zzz’s – What is your last homemaking task for the day before going to bed? trying to get everything out of reach of polly. it never works.
now, i'm going to work on my keyboard. this ended up being harder
than i thought it would be. not the post, but the posting.
wierd things happen when i push the shift keys. probably that
orange juice i spilled earlier. thanks, raymond

I left for a couple days, and this post dissapeared. I edited it and it came back. Comments are all gone though. Wonder what happened?
