I do home canning and a fair deal of baking. There's a lot of trad bullshit around this that makes me just go "I'm canning cause I love me some candied jalapeños, not because my husband demands I do"

Do you own lots of ankle-length skirts?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I use to because skirts are fun to wear! I also wear long sleeves shirts because they're warm and look I know

I look the part which is why people assume but I just like baking bread, canning apple butter, and being cozy!

I would auto translate articles / blogs from other languages. In Estonia we mostly have advice literature like that free of bull. I imagine the same is roughly true for most countries besides the US. I'm trying to collect materials about everything DIY and write down what I know. Ask me if you ever try woodworking, construction, plant related stuff or anything that needs doing around the house, like snow removal or firewood. There's lots of tricks to everything. I'm take my time about it as I need to get stuff done so I haven't organized it as a blog yet.
