This got me to thinking when we had snow and ice for a week here in South Texas. How many people just did not know how or what to do. If only they had been taught some of the old-fashioned homemaking skill it may have been a little easier on them. I will be the first to admit I have gotten spoiled with our modern conveniences. Modern conveniences and busy schedules have made modern homemaking faster and less hands-on. But what important, old fashioned homemaking skills have we lost? Here are some ideas to inspire you, and tips to get you started. GARDENING Decades ago, all farms and homes had vegetable gardens, even city homes. Fresh produce was expensive to buy, homes were on larger lots, and growing your vegetables just made sense. Today food is less expensive to buy, and we have less time and space. Gardening is on an increase. You can container garden for small areas, but many people are likely to try it and give it up, or see it as just a hobby. But for the old-fashioned homemaker, keeping a home garden was a given. That does not mean that everyone was living off the land! But vegetable gardens were expected as a way to supplement the family’s diet and help save a little money. 00:1 It is debatable whether gardening still saves money. But as food prices increase, it seems more and more valuable, and it’s a skill that you have to build over time. Why not start small and learn what you can? Don’t forget about cutting flowers as well, which are the perfect way to give your house charm and coziness in the spring and summer. If you have any amount of outdoor space at all, gardening is a worthy activity. Everyone can have a few herbs in pots at least. Preserving Seasonal Food Hand in hand with gardening is preserving the harvest. Canning, dehydrating, and other ways to preserve food help homemakers avoid waste and live seasonally. Even if you do not garden, you can preserve food. You can frequent farmer’s markers, ask friends for produce, and even preserve grocery store items. This can actually be very cost effective when you buy good sale prices on foods you really eat. Even though canning is one of the most important traditional homemaking skills, make sure you are using modern resources for canning recipes and techniques. A lot has changed over the years in terms of best practices for canning, and many old-fashioned recipes are no longer considered safe, unfortunately. Baking Bread Baking bread is one of the best ways to revive a vintage homemaking skill, because anyone can do it. Homemade bread is so much better than store bought, and it definitely saves money. Even though it takes quite a bit of time to bake bread, most of it is hands off time and it can easily be fit into the rhythm of your day. Bread baking is something that has become much easier with modern inventions like bread machines and instant yeast. But it is good to know how to do it without any of these things too. Once you get used to yeast breads, branch out into sourdough and kneading by hand. They are timeless skills that help you reduce your dependence on store bought supplies. Cooking from Scratch Old fashioned homemakers did not have the luxury of any mixes or pre-made meals. Everything was made from scratch out of necessity. But keep in mind that most meals were very simple (like beans and cornbread for dinner simple). When you transition to cooking everything from scratch, it is best to get there slowly. First: stop buying things that are expensive, like fully prepared meals. Then give up boxed mixes and instant side dishes. Then work up to making even more things yourself, like mayonnaise and spice mixes (if you want to!). Now just because cooking from scratch is an old-fashioned skill doesn’t mean you can’t use modern conveniences. If you have a deep freezer, slow cooker, or pressure cooker, take advantage of them! Planning Ahead Running a household has a lot of moving parts. And often we get so caught up in the details of our day to work like picking up the house, gardening, yard work, taking care of the livestock, and making dinner that we forget bigger picture items. Old fashioned homemakers did not plan elaborate events or vacations, but their day-to-day life followed a routine, as did their weeks. The homemaker was also in charge of the grocery list and meal planning. A century ago, if a family had a lot of money, this might be the only task of the homemaker, and everything else was done by servants! Think of the term “managing” the home. That’s what this is. Thinking about what is needed, ahead of time, and being ready. Don’t forget to plan down time for yourself and your family as well. Sewing I was fortunate to have grown up learning to sew. My mom was a seamstress so it was a must to learn sewing. When I was in school we had to take "homemaking" it was a mandatory class. I ended up helping the teacher with the sew class because I already knew how. 😃 Sewing does not save you much money, if any, unless you are very clever about reusing fabric and getting deals. But it’s such a satisfying and productive hobby! And if you really think about why clothing and other fabric goods are so inexpensive, it is definitely worth the effort and expense to make nicer quality, longer lasting things. History Keeping Don’t forget about this, as it is one homemaking skill that will outlive you, long after every loaf of bread is eaten! Old fashioned homemakers were able to simply save photographs, letters, and the family Bible. Every photograph and letter were likely to be special. But today, our homes are filled with junk papers and with so many things being digital, devoid of special photos and letters. So, it’s our job to make memories and record history more consciously. Don’t just keep your pictures trapped on your phone, get them printed and hang them up! Consider an easy journal with a few lines a day so that you have a real memento you can pass down. Soap Making This is one that people think is really weird! But it is so satisfying. There is two ways of making it "cold press" or "hot press". The cold press is simple so everyone should try it at least once. Soap making can save you money and also is great way to give handmade gifts that people will really use. You can also make a small amount of money selling soap, or more money if you are willing to make it on a large scale. Vintage Vs. Modern HousekeepingOf course, things are different today. Many women work outside the home and even stay at home moms have a lot of expectations related to their children’s school and activities. These old-fashioned homemaking skills are not things that we can expect everyone to know and do on a regular basis. But if you are feeling the need to look inward and pull in your skills, try mastering one of the things on this list. And don’t forget to count your blessings and be content. Perhaps the most valuable skill of all. My Homemaking / Home Management Binder I like to transfer my schedule into my daily binder (this is the schedule I’ve been using for several years). I feel like it’s the best planner for homemakers, because it also includes 20 pages for weekly schedule and budgeting. Also a place to list meals for each day. Print and reuse as needed.

Every homemaker’s daily schedule will look a bit different, but sometimes it helps to see how someone else structures their day. Here is a peek into my current personal schedule. When people find out that I’m a homemaker, they often want to know what my day looks like. I think sometimes they are wondering what exactly homemakers do all day! Does being a homemaker mean I have unlimited amounts of free time? Do homemakers just sit around eating bonbons and feeling bored? Hardly! Homemaking never gets boring! I have had many jobs in my life but being a homemaker has been the most challenging as well as the most rewarding career ever. One thing I have learned is that having an orderly home does not just happen. It takes a lot of planning and a desire. A schedule helps me with that. A Homemaker's Daily ScheduleFor me, it helps to have a daily schedule to follow. This helps me to focus on tasks for my days rather than just drifting through life. And just because I choose the use of a schedule or routine, that does not mean that I follow my schedule perfectly. I never do. Things come up, we get sick, livestock get sick, life happens. But I still like to have a basic framework for my days to help me get closer to accomplishing my goals. A schedule also eliminates lots of decision fatigue. If you already have a basic plan for the day, you do not have to wonder what you should do first thing in the morning. You have already got that planned out. My Current Schedule Recently, I updated my schedule. My hope is to make my days as productive as possible. And I hope to make some progress on my goals. My goals include being the best I can be wife, mom, farmer (keeping our farm animals healthy), as well as personal and home goals. As a farmer / rancher, you will see our farm time reflected on the schedule. If you do not have a farm, you could have more homemaking, cleaning, and project time scheduled in during that time. There’s also time for exercise, cleaning tasks, cooking, and one-one-one time. Here is a basic outline of my current schedule:4:00-8:00 Morning Routine (my current morning routine includes Bible and prayer time, reading time, exercise, showering, and morning chores) 8:30-9:30 Farm / Feeding time for livestock 9:30-11:30 Farm / cleaning the barns 12:00-1:00 Lunch 2:00-4:00 Projects (decluttering and organizing, creative projects, baking, or online work) 4:00-5:00 One-on-One Time with my husband 5:00 Start Dinner 6:30 Dinner 7:30 Evening Routine 10:00 In Bed About the ScheduleYou will notice that my morning routine takes several hours at the beginning of my day. During this time, I am reading, praying, exercising, taking a shower, and getting dressed, and eating breakfast. I also have time for working on a few cleaning tasks early in the morning. In addition to making the bed and straightening the master bedroom, I also have a few cleaning jobs to work on, based on what day of the week it is. Now that it is not kidding season (baby goats), this morning routine works for me. When I have bottle babies (baby goats), I cannot have had such a long morning routine like this. That is why I am continuously adjusting my schedule. As our life seasons change, the schedule and routines change with it. The time slot designated for “projects,” is the time for working on DIY projects, big cooking or cleaning projects, sewing, or crafting, and online work. Our evening routine includes things like cleaning up from dinner, checking on farm animals, and other family activities Weekend ScheduleThe schedule above is for Monday through Friday. Our Saturdays look a bit different. My husband and I pick up feed for the feed store and pick up groceries from curbside shopping. Later that day we do projects around the home or farm. We have a rest/family day on Sundays. My Homemaking / Home Management Binder I like to transfer my schedule into my daily binder (this is the schedule I’ve been using for several years). I feel like it’s the best planner for homemakers, because it also includes 20 pages for weekly schedule and budgeting. Also a place to list meals for each day. Print and reuse as needed. GET YOUR HOMEMAKING / HOME MANAGEMENT BINDER Here’s my simple process for How to Make a Schedule.For some homemakers, it works better to focus on a simple daily routine, rather than a rigid schedule. I put times on my schedule just to use as a guideline, but we often do not follow it exactly. One thing I always keep in mind is that the schedule is just a tool to help us to be more productive. It is not my master. If things do not go according to plan, due to sickness or other factors beyond my control, that’s okay. I just do what I can and remain peaceful, knowing I can try to go back to the schedule later. When Schedules Don’t WorkThere have been seasons where a schedule did not work for me at all. This was usually a season of farm work, or chronic illness. Whatever the reason, sometimes it just does not work to have a schedule. And there is nothing wrong with that. One way to maintain some kind of order and still feel like you are accomplishing something during these difficult days, is to make a daily list. The Daily List ScheduleHere is what I do during those times when a schedule (or even a routine) just won’t work. I get a small, cheap spiral notebook from the dollar store (like this one). Before bed each night, I write down everything I need to get done. Everything from getting dressed, to making and eating breakfast, to putting a load of laundry in the washer. After I have my list down, of everything I want/need to get done the next day, I highlight the most important things. The next day, regardless of the time, I just work through my list. For the most part, I do not worry about what time it is (unless the task is something time-sensitive, like an appointment or something). I love being able to check the tasks off the list as I go. I can see that I am getting things done, even if they are just basic things necessary to survival, like making a meal and doing laundry! If times are really stressful, I like to do something enjoyable too, like setting drinking a glass of ice cold sweet tea and watching the baby goats play, reading, just relaxing. Planning like this probably will not be as productive as using a more structured schedule, but you’ll eliminate the feeling that life is out of control and you’re not getting anything done! And remember, it is just for a season. One day, things will probably settle down and be more predictable (or maybe not, and that is okay too!). Creating Your Own Homemaker’s Daily ScheduleI hope this post has given you some ideas for creating your own homemaking daily schedule or routine.

Margarita & Stace Is it possible to be the perfect homemaker? Here’s a secret, yes, it is! Keep reading to find out how you, too, can be “the perfect homemaker” Now I would like you to notice that I used the word “homemaker” and not “housekeeper”. Believe it or not, there is a difference. Many decades ago, I was taught the meaning of a homemaker verses homekeeper. Which they are two different meanings. Now, lets look at the two different words. First let’s look at the words “house” and “home”. A house is the actual structure – apartment, condo, house, trailer, etc. A home is beyond just the structure…it is the feeling or atmosphere of a house … the heartbeat of a house. Next, there are the word's “keeper” and “maker”. A keeper takes care of something (usually belonging to someone else). A maker makes something what it is. It takes a structure and makes it inviting. So, a “housekeeper” is someone who takes care of the household duties — cooking, cleaning, repairing, managing. These duties can be hired out so the one keeping the house isn’t necessarily the owner. A “homemaker” is someone who takes ownership in that same area. Tries to make it inviting, warm, cozy, safe, comfortable. Yes, a homemaker has the duties of cleaning, cooking, shopping, laundry, and managing the home (we’ll talk about those some other time) BUT it’s more than that. It’s putting your heart into it, it’s personalizing the space to make it exactly what your family needs and desires, it’s surrounding yourself with the people and things that you love, it’s about making memories that will last a lifetime. So … the first thing that you need to do to be the “perfect homemaker” is to change how you think about what you do. Don’t only think of it as duties that you perform but as a ministry to your family. Anyone can do the duties but not everyone can do it with love, commitment, and the goal of wanting it to be a safe and inviting environment. What are your desires for the atmosphere of your home?
Only YOU can answer these questions. Only YOU can truly create the atmosphere that you desire. Only YOU can put your heart into your home!!! Please don’t be freaked out by the emphasis on “you”! It isn’t meant to put the pressure on you but instead to help you realize the honor that you have. This honor was given to you by God in order to fulfill in you who He wants you to be — the woman, wife, mother, sister, daughter, aunt, grandmother, friend. Whatever your title might be, it’s an honor to have that title. Be proud of it — it’s all yours! So this is your assignment1. Make a list of things that happened in your home (or your grandparents’ home, a friend’s home, whomever) that made you feel safe, comfortable, relaxed or made a memory (obviously it did or you wouldn’t be remembering it, huh). 2. Brainstorm about things that you would like to do in your home (more board games, more family outings, more homemade cookies, opportunities to show hospitality, etc.). You might be tempted to put things like keep up on laundry or dust more often on this list but, for now, don’t. Those items are for another time and place. I want you to think about atmosphere and memories, about cozy and warm, about laughing and sharing moments with your family. Remember, YOU are the only one who can be the perfect homemaker in your home! No one else can duplicate the atmosphere that you want to create, no one else can love and nurture your family the way that you can, no one else will create the same memories as you will. It’s a serious calling but one filled with love, blessings and feelings of accomplishment. Using your strengths (that He gave you), you will create the best possible home for you and your family. It’s a huge responsibility but it’s also full of blessings! You’ve got this!!!

Margarita & Stace Nothing quenches our thirst on a hot day like an ice-cold glass of sweet tea. As the preferred beverage of Texans, sweet tea is a must-have in many kitchens and restaurants across Texas year-round. Brewing this beverage can be a simple task, but to truly make sweet tea the Texan way every time, here are a few tips and tricks. Sad truth: I have probably had way more Sweet Tea in my life than plain water. I know that sounds crazy but it is a fact. A pitcher of it existed on every supper table through my youth into my adult life. In our home, sweet tea was the beverage of choice (whether I wanted it or not) for almost every meal. You can still find sweet tea in our fridge. We drink sweet tea on a daily basis. Sweet Tea is commonly known as brewed tea that has been sweetened with usually sugar then served ice cold in a refreshing manner. The appeal of a Sweet Tea Recipe is pretty clear: Ice cold tea with heaps of sugar to cut that tea tartness. Whoever invented this was a genius! Most Texans would like you to believe that there is a real science to making this beverage but I think that’s just a bunch of cow poop…that has been brainwashing folks for years. The reality is it is quite simple to make a good ole fashioned homemade Sweet Tea Recipe. I didn’t have a real recipe to share in this post. In fact, the recipe below is more of a guideline than a set recipe to follow. So really you only need like 3 (or 4) things to create this homemade sweet tea recipe:
Tip: The longer you brew your tea, the stronger it will be. However don’t worry too much because as soon as you add ice, you will dilute the strength somewhat. For the sugar, this is up to your taste. I know folks who love their tea to taste as sweet as candy and then others that like theirs a bit on the bitter side. Again, it’s up to your taste. Tip: The safe way to approach this is by adding half of the sugar, allowing it to dissolve completely and then tasting and deciding how much more to add. Lemon or mint? That’s more of a new aged thing to some. My mama certainly would think so...we only had lemon when guest was over. I love adding them to my glass pitcher because of the additional flavor infused in the tea and how lovely it looks swirly around in my mason jar. For entertaining you can add them to your pitcher to make the color pop! What Tea Brand Should I Use For My Homemade Sweet Tea Recipe? Now for tea bags, the South is pretty loyal to Luzianne,& Lipton. We have HEB grocery stores in our area; they make a great selection of tea bags. We use HEB tea bags (half the price of the name brand). So grab one of those boxes of tea and get busy. When it is all said and done, making a Sweet Tea Recipe is no sweat, believe me, and it is a very personal thing. Make it your own and enjoy a big glass for me, okay? Did you make this recipe? Please give it a star rating and leave comments below! Sweet Tea RecipeINGREDIENTS

Blessings, Margarita & Stace Back in the day canning and storing up food was hard work, the backbreaking processes of planting and harvesting and then following days of canning in a hot kitchen. It was part of farm life. I grew up preserving food…yes, back in the day. Hahaha! I learned quite a bit from my grandmother and mom. I didn’t think I would every preserve food when I was out on my on…never say never. Back in the day canning was hard work. Let’s fast forward to today. I still live on a farm with my husband. Yes, we have a garden and we can and preserve our food. I want to share with you the basics of how I can and preserve vegetables. Home canning is an easy way to preserve and share the bounty of your home garden or farmer’s market finds. *We get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

Click Here for more info about cookies collected and our privacy policy.* Canning Vegetables at HomeImproved methods of home canning make it more enjoyable and safer for a homemaker to preserve the natural goodness of vegetables. Foods spoil because of the action of molds, yeasts and bacteria. Also, enzymes in vegetables may cause undesirable changes in flavor, color and texture. Using the proper procedures during canning, such as processing foods with a high enough heat for a long enough time, destroys the organisms and stops the action of enzymes. Airtight seals then protect foods from contamination. Do not use a jar of canned goods if they appear cloud, foamy or have an “off” color or odor. Follow recipes carefully to ensure good results. Do not adjust sugar, vinegar or salt amounts in recipes as this can lead to food spoilage. Use 5 percent acidity white vinegar unless otherwise specified. For best results, use a canning salt that is processed without caking agents or iodine as these can affect color and crispness of the finished products. Certain foods like okra, carrots, green beans and asparagus are considered ‘low acid foods’ and must be canned in a steam pressure canner at 240 degrees to avoid botulism contamination unless sufficient vinegar is added to the recipe (as in pickling) to avoid contamination. Pickled foods can be processed in the water bath canner at 212 degrees. Equipment You Will NeedBoiling water canner or a large enough stock pot to cover the jars with at least one inch of water. The canners you buy come with a jar rack to raise the jars off the bottom of the pan to allow water to thoroughly circulate under the jars. You may use a cake rack in a deep stock pot to get the same results. You will need a lid to tightly cover the container. Canning jars in half pint, pint or one quart sizes. These jars are made with special threads to seal properly with home canning screw bands and lids. The jars should have no nicks or chips in the necks which would inhibit a proper seal. Jars may be reused many times if they are in good condition. Jar lids and screw bands come in standard or wide mouth types. Screw bands may be reused if they are not worn or rusted but the lids should not be reused Tools to make the job easier:Steps for Canning
Pressure CanningPressure canning is essential in safely preparing low acid foods such as vegetables. Temperatures of at least 240 degrees Fahrenheit (F) must be reached when processing low-acid foods in order to destroy the spores of the dangerous Clostridium botulinum microorganism. They survive in low-acid foods in the absence of air, which is a condition present in canned vegetables and meats. When the spores begin to grow, they produce the deadly botulinum toxin without noticeable signs of spoilage in the sealed jar. The temperature of 240 degrees F can be reached only in a pressure canner at the appropriate pounds pressure for the altitude of your area. Both dial gauge and weighted gauge pressure canners are available commercially. The dial gauge canner has a gauge with a needle that indicates the pounds of pressure inside the canner. The gauges on these canners need to be checked each year to ensure accuracy. County Extension agents or the company that made the canner may be able to perform this service. For canners with a weighted gauge, the gauge does not need to be tested as long as there has been no damage to the gauge. It is important to keep the instruction manual that comes with any canner for reference. Theses are the two different canners. Hope this has answered all you questions about canners.

Blessings, Margarita & Stace I grew up canning food from our garden with my mom and grandmother. Such good memories and valuable lessons learned from them. I do so miss both of those sweet, sweet ladies. When our garden does not produce enough taters I buy extra 10 pound bags of potatoes and can them. It makes it fast and easy at meal time. On days I spent outside working all day I can open a jar of potatoes add some butter and seasoning to go with the meal. So, so good! *We get commissions for purchases made through links in this post. As an Amazon associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. for more info about cookies collected and our privacy policy.* My video on How To Can Potatoes. Preparation of PotatoesWash the potatoes and peel off skins. Wash them again. Leave small potatoes whole and quarter larger potatoes or cut into uniform cubes. Place in a stainless steel pot or bowl of cold water after cutting to prevent browning. If you’re going to hot-pack them, go ahead and put them in a large pot so you don’t have to switch them to something else before boiling them. You need 2-3 pounds of potatoes for each quart/liter jar that you can. That’s about 15 medium sized potatoes…or several dozen tiny ones. I start by peeling the taters and putting in a bowl of cold water. Next I cubed my taters. Canning PotatoesPotatoes, like many other vegetables, can be hot- or raw-packed. The process for canning potatoes with raw- and hot-pack methods is not all that different and both require a pressure canner because of the low acidity of potatoes. In general, the hot-pack method is recommended because the vegetables will be more pliable and you can get more vegetables packed into each jars But when you’re doing many, many jars of them you decide that the raw-pack method will do just fine. Just keep in mind that when you raw pack, the vegetables may shrink or soften and the jar may not end up as full as you initially intended. You may also end up with a much lower water level in the jars because the potatoes absorb it, but this is no cause for concern. And the white sediment in the bottom of some of the jars? That’s just starch from the potatoes–absolutely harmless. Always wash and clean your jars and lids before using them and keep them warm in a pot of boiling water or in the oven until you are ready to pack them. To hot-pack potatoes, place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water (if you didn’t do this already after washing them). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil small cubes for 2 minutes and small whole potatoes or quartered potatoes for 10 minutes, until heated through but not soft. Drain, discarding cooking liquid. Pack hot potatoes into hot jars, leaving 1 inch head-space, and pressure can as instructed below. To raw-pack potatoes, firmly pack cleaned potatoes into hot jars, leaving 1 inch head-space, and proceed as follows for pressure canning. To pressure can potatoes:
