My Favorite “Home Keeping” Blogs

I am one of those women that has a firm image in my head of “who I want to be”, and of course the blogs I read reflect the traits that I admire most in a woman and family. It’s from these blogs that I gather tips, encouragement, and advice on how to slowly and successfully mold myself into who I desire to be remembered as after I die.

The typical themes of the blogs I read are…

Homeschooling
Christian living
Proverbs 31 women
Old fashioned living
Natural / holistic family care
Farm living
Mothering
Being a good wife
Cooking
Home living

I rarely surf outside these bounderies, unless I know the person. (I do however make allowence for reading the ProBlogger blog to learn bloggy tips!).

Here are just a few of blogs I enjoy regularly because of their “meaty” content and outstanding advice:

Home Living by Lady Lydia – her “theme” articles are a must read if nothing else!
Organizing Junkie - if you want to organize, visit this blog. ‘Nuff said.
Simple Mom – this blog is so daggum awesome it makes me choke. The advice and articles are top notch!
Happy to Be Called Mommy – this little lady is so amazing I feel like crawling under a rock and hiding just from glancing at her fantistic daily happenings. It puts me to shame! Just the past few weeks she’s canned a gazillion pints of different home grown things, dried apples, built her kids a playhouse, and all sorts of other amazing things. And she teachers herself how to do it all too, courtesy of google and reading.
Hillbilly Housewife – I don’t quite like this as much as I did when the original owner was running it, but there are still some awesome articles to read! (And the “magic milkshake” recipe from there has become a staple at our house)
Frugal Abundance – run by the original “hillbilly housewife” owner! I “moved” with her when she left the hillbilly housewife website to start this new one.
