Adding Beauty to the Home {Part I: A Pleasant Scent}

4/5/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
For Mom Time, I've been reading, Rural Life in England by Washington Irving from my vintage, Pocket University, Vol. 3, Part II.

Irving describes the beauty of the country home as "books, paintings, music, horses, dogs, and sporting implements of all kinds" (p. 26). It gave me pause.  I found myself asking, "What adds beauty to the home?" Thus, a new blog series begins.

In Adding Beauty to the Home, Part I: A Pleasant Scent, let's consider the ways scent, a distinctive smell; especially one that is pleasant, can add beauty to the home. ​

Frugal Finds  + Baby Step 1: $1000 Emergency Fund

Source: Every Dollar
I am working on Dave Ramsey's Baby Steps, and along the way, I will share our progess and frugal finds! In January, we were able to complete Baby Step 1: $1,000 Emergency Fund.

I think it might be smart, as we save more, to diversify where the savings is stored such as:
  • bank savings account,
  • fire-proof, locked cash box, or
  • safety-deposit box. 
Any insights are welcomed. I do have a few frugal finds to share ...

"Mom, don't you ever find a cozy little corner just to read?" said my daughter, looking up from her book. The baby was down for her nap and I was busy catching up with homekeeping. A cozy little corner.  That's just what I need.

Since then, I started, what I call, Mom Time.  I choose three books per term (12 weeks) to enjoy in my cozy little corner. Karen Andreola, in her book, Mother Curlture, encourages us ...
