Comments and Questions About Home Life (With Video)

Hello Dear Ones,

All is well here and I hope all is well with you. If not, maybe you'll feel better about everything after listening to this current video. I answered a few things on my list of subjects suggested by viewers.

Picture below: I recently learned about the benefits of this tea:

You may recall years ago when I made some fake cakes with silk flower petals. This year, for the child play kitchen. I made this fake cake using stickers from the dollar store. I explained more about it in the video. I sometimes scent them with a bit of vanilla.

There is an interest amongst grown-ups to create their own homeschool curriculum and homeschool themselves.  I suggested several books, but a curriculum could also include craft kits and other kinds of activities. Sometimes the Victoria magazines have articles about ancient architecture and countries of the world, that could be used as extra interest in home school.

Coloring books from Dover Books have lovely art and all kinds of themes including, farms, houses, scenery, and more. Although this is a coloring book, I got this one to use as a drawing book for future art themes. 

The recent Victoria magazine and 

an original book about the home by Emily Barnes, of whom I always say, "Her works live on after her." 

Eric Sloane books have good drawings and descriptions of how things work.

I like the Lamplighter books, and you can see some of them stacked in the background of this photo:

An antique vase of dollar store flowers placed on one of Grandma's handwork lace pieces. 

 I took a picture of this old barn through the fog.

Thank you for coming, and I hope this video is edifying and that you use the video to listen while you get a few things done at home.
