"Homemaking is surely in reality the most important job in the world. What do ships, railways, mines, cars, government, etc. exist for except that people may be fed, warmed, and safe in their own homes?...The homemaker's job is one for which all others exist." – C.S. Lewis (Jack)
"Fairytales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." – G.K. Chesterton
"There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort." – Jane Austen
"How can it be a large career to tell other people's children the Rule of Three, and a small career to tell one's own children about the universe? How can it be broad to be the same thing to everyone and narrow to be everything to someone? No. A woman's function is laborious because it is gigantic, not because it is minute. I will pity Mrs. Jones because of the hugeness of her task; I will never pity her for its smallness." – G.K. Chesterton
"The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid." – Jane Austen
"Religious liberty might be supposed to mean that everybody is free to discuss religion. In practice it means that hardly anybody is allowed to mention it." – G.K. Chesterton
"I'm not afraid of storms, for I'm learning how to sail my ship." – Louisa May Alcott

#23 Chocolate Apricot Upside-Down Cake
This was another one of those, “I have no idea if this will be any good” cakes. Chocolate and Apricot? That sounded weird to me. I was excited about how easy this one looked though. But what I wasn’t excited … Continue reading
Baby Quilt and Nursery for Elseth Jr. Part 2
I finally finished the quilt! My goal was to have it done before the baby arrived, so I met my goal. Getting around to everything took way longer than I anticipated, however. I followed the tutorials from this site to make the … Continue reading
#22 The Classic, and the special carrot cake
This cake is “the classic” birthday cake. Yellow cake with fudge frosting. I myself never had this cake on my birthday because I always wanted an ice cream cake. Mmm. Maybe this is a pregnancy craving because right now I … Continue reading
#21 Lemon Queen Cakes with Meringue Frosting
These were fun little cakes to make. I wasn’t sure if my teacups were oven safe, but I figured I would try it with my Anthropologie cups since they are cheaper and easier to replace than my antique-store teacups. Risky … Continue reading
