I’m now in a pretty good routine of grocery shopping at Aldi every other week and it seems to be saving me some money. I did this Aldi grocery haul last Thursday, rather than Friday, because I was in town that day for an appointment. We live 15-20 minutes out of town so I try…
Menu Monday ~ October 21, 2019
We have been having such lovely fall weather. Yesterday it was in the low 80s and I spent a couple of hours lying in the sun listening to music. Can it stay this way forever, please? Unfortunately…no. Later this week I see a couple of chilly days in the forecast and while that doesn’t thrill…
Azure Standard Grocery Haul
When you live in a small town it can be a real challenge to find certain items, especially organic and bulk foods. Fortunately we have a drop location for Azure Standard. I didn’t order much this time but I thought I’d share anyway. Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links which help pay for website…
Is Being a Homemaker Enough?
Is being a homemaker enough? One of my favorite YouTubers recently asked that question and it struck a chord with me. Is it? I suppose the short answer is…maybe. But let’s delve a little deeper. Is Being a Homemaker Enough? There was a time when few questioned whether being a homemaker was “enough”. Men went…
Menu Monday ~ October 14, 2019
Did you enjoy last week’s Menu Monday ~ 1940s Style? We had so many leftovers that I didn’t end up making everything planned so you’ll see a couple of repeats in this week’s menu. Dee’s Menu Monday I have a 5:15 meeting and David has one at 6. I think I can time this so…
Homemaking in the 1940s
Homemaking in the 1940s is a fascinating topic. The strength and creativity exhibited by the homemakers of that era inspires me and makes me want to learn more about how they coped during a difficult time period. Throughout history homemakers have often faced challenges related to world events. This was true during The Great Depression…
Ham Steak and Scalloped Potatoes ~ A Vintage Meal
I love looking at older cookbooks and vintage magazines for meal plan ideas. Sometimes I get tired of the same old recipes and it’s fun to cook like the 1940s or 1950s for a few days. Here is a vintage-inspired meal idea we’ve enjoyed recently and I thought I’d share it with you. This post…
Aldi Grocery Haul ~ 1940s Week
This is the second time I’ve done a two-week Aldi grocery haul and I think this is going to work well. Each Friday I go to a local coffee shop to write and then run errands afterwards. Every other week I’ll be doing a two-week shop at Aldi. There may still be an occasional item…
Menu Monday ~ 1940s Style
Whenever I get in a rut with meals I like to change things up. This week I’ll be cooking and serving a 1940s style menu. I have a feeling David will love it! It’s surprisingly difficult to find 1940s cookbooks still in print. However, my daughter (Retro Housewife Goes Green) told me that for only…
