Hello all, and welcome to my blog. As you may have gathered from my blog's title, I am an "ordinary" housewife and stay-at-home mom. I have been happily married to my wonderful husband for six years (yes, I know I'm sounding like a Wheel of Fortune contestant :-P) and have a 19 month old daughter with a second baby on the way.
Don't let the word "housewife" conjure up images of old 50's sitcoms (though they are nice!) No, I am not June Cleaver, and I am certainly far from perfect. I take advantage of as many modern conveniences as I reasonably can, but also strive to live as frugally as possible. I manage most of the household finances, which is a responsibility not to be taken lightly.
I have a BA in English literature, which I enjoyed studying for immensely, but have never been able to put to use in terms of a career. But that's okay--I'm currently doing what I've always wanted to do. I still have a great love for reading and writing.
I enjoy baking and cooking (when I'm feeling well) and have been known to dabble in cake decorating. I really don't care for cleaning, so I try to find ways to get that done as quickly and painlessly as possible! I like to tell others about products I find useful (as well as those I don't!) share recipes and advice and just talk about life as a mom.
So, I have decided to try my hand at blogging. Please keep in mind I am new at this and I ask you to bear with me as I "learn the ropes." I am open to suggestions, comments and ideas for future posts. However, I tend to steer clear of politics and other "controversial" subjects and I will keep my content PG, in case any of my younger friends decide to look in. :-)
