This is charming, Tessie. I love it. Community is lost these days. It's nice that we can c9me together as women and homemakers and share our lives, ideas and worries. I can see this turning into something big for you, Tessie! I used to follow a woman in Instagram who would compile a list of her followers suppers for the week and then share the list. It was fun to see what everyone was planning and a nice way to connect. I'm getting dumplings together for tonight's supper while I watch and listen to this charming video. Thank you, Tessie!
I love these so much!! I remember mom talking about WW2 and the hard times when the men went to war. She got quiet when she talked about when the telegrams would arrive, and you could hear people crying, and you knew the news was bad. How everyone helped everyone else, watched each others children, and delivered babies. Men not accepted into the service were helping neighborhood families, fixing things, making sure service mens families were cared for. My granddad cut all the boys' hair in the neighborhood out in the backyard. When the boys needed a stern talking to, he did that as well. You needed stamps to buy everything, 1 pair of shoes, no stockings, x pounds of sugar, flour, etc a year. I don't think people would survive under these conditions now. Blessings to all.
Tessie, in your reading you mentioned how important this radio session was for homemakers during this time, to hear another friendly woman's voice each day speaking about familiar subjects to women back then. Also how connection and importance of community was. I feel that we (subscribers) get the chance to listen not to a radio station but real life you. You who talks about common interests, inspires us to try living our life as we want and not worrying about how society tells us differently. To not let life pass us by without trying something new that creates joy and learning. We are enjoying the same thing only we get to see you and spend a little companion time also. Love this series you are doing.
Reminds me of my neighbor and I who were stay at home moms. We communicated on our long wired wall phones and kept each other busy with our cooking. Sewing. Baking. Crafting. I miss those days. I miss her. 😢
Nice series. I know my mother was a good neighbor in the 50’s and those women were so supportive of one another. My dad served in WWII but my mom was 10 years younger. I’m the only child who moved far away from home. That’s one decision I’m ok with but the loss of being close to family is still with me.
You can still go back. I moved across the US when I was 22 and returned home at age 43. As the youngest child and only daughter. I was blessed to spend the last years of my mother’s life. She died at 98.
This was so endearing and remains relevant for us in 2024, Tessie. With the distractions of today, we need this message about rest, just as women and homemakers needed it then. In a way, hearing these tips and feeling a sense of shared experience makes me feel connected to these women from long ago. ❤
I enjoyed this. I have followed some British You tubers who are preparing all their meals from recipes from that time and during rationing. It's all very interesting.
I ❤ this!!! I hope you do more??? ❤ the color scheme your wearing too. I do and I teach my daughter to pace ourselves like take a break between each task don't kill yourself to get everything done. My son has severe autism (he's 22) and he constantly tears up pieces of paper onto the floor. The pieces are so uniform it looks like confetti - floorfetti lol. Anyway he does it so much we don't break our backs to keep it swept up or make him sweep it up. We'll get to it when we get to it.
I remember my dad stopping at those roadside springs. The water was alway cool on hot summer days and refreshingly good! They were clear and clean. Enjoyed listening.❤❤❤
Wow! I really miss these stories! My great grandmother lived with us until she passed away when I was in the 7th grade. I absolutely loved to listen to her tell us stories about her life. She told me that the depression didn't hit the farmers until much later since they were more self-sufficient. Eventually everyone was affected. She told me how her mother would make her and her siblings lard sandwiches for their school lunch.
I started my homemade potpourri in my kettle (like yours) on the top of my woodstove. After I fill it with water, I add 5 or 6 whole cloves, 2 cinnamon sticks and 3 dehydrated orange slices. I may add some essential oils too since we don't use this kettle for anything except to humidify our home during the winter. This is our 3 year with the kettle and it's still holding strong! We don't have to have an actual humidifier in our small home. I do have to fill the kettle every day so that shows we are placing a decent amount of water into the air without causing any problems.
My spouse went on a week long hunting trip last year during the winter. It was really hard doing all the chores, gathering eggs, penning up the chickens at night, feeding animals and keeping the fire burning and preparing a holiday dinner. I can’t imagine what those women went through with their husbands away for much longer extended periods of time. Talk about fortitude and resilience, those women were exceptional. We must listen to their expert advise
Tessie, I cant express just how much I am enjoying this series. You put a great amount of time and effort into this and it is so interesting. You are such a great friend and inspiration.
OH My Gosh, I searched online and found lots of PDF files, Creative Canning, open library, National agriculture library . GOV. I had no idea there were so many sites out there. Thank you!!
Tessie this is off subject but i love that checked tablecloth you keep on your table most of the time. Could you take a picture of it so i can try to copy the pattern? Id so appreciate it. Thank you.

Are you talking about Emmitt Till's community?

I love reading older cookbooks and “homemaking books” ❤❤❤
Have you read Isabella Alden and/or Grace Livingston Hill books? They have many homemaking gems hidden in them. ❤

Oh my I LOVE this! It lets me know what my mother and grandmother were thinking and doing during that time in history!
