become a domestic goddess

the butterscotch scrolls (or cinnamon scrolls)I cooked last night so much they asked for more today.

I cooked breakfast for the kids as well today!

I asked my DH if I was making progress with this goal and he said yes :0) not only have I continued to make his breakfast and lunch each day but I have also started ironing his work clothes when I get them off the line. (Most of our casual stuff is wash and wear stuff!)

for a whole week!!! I will try to keep this momentum going!

To make breakfast and lunch for DH everyday!

I want to learn how to make those beautiful cakes, muffins, scones, learn how to cook a great dinner, I want people to say I’m a domestic goddess, especially in the kitchen.

I made pancakes, bacon and eggs for breakfast and my DH commented on the pancakes all looking the same. I am making progress even with my cooking skills it seems ;0)

today I managed to clean the house, weed one of the front gardens (took several hours!) and bake mini cupcakes for my children for their afternoon tea. Now I just have to cook dinner and get ready for work, which is going to be a huge night too.

This is beyond me… Cleaning schedual, cooking, organization! Can I ever become the domestic goddess that I have heard about, or are they just myths? I have tried, oh… have I tried. Can anyone suggest anything? How do you keep your house organized?

I sooo fell of the wagon. I was distracted by a multitude of events, including a fire. But I am back on the wagon!!

Also found 2 GREAT books – Emilie Barnes 15 minute Home & Budget Manager. It’s 2 books condensed into one volume. Loads of organization tips, cleaning tips.

Another is called Life Management for Busy Women by Elizabeth George. Both are Christian writers, the books are based on Bible Scripture. I was very surprised to see how much God emphasizes being orderly and hospitable at home.
