Time to Clean Ladies

Good Morning and welcome to the Barnes Homestead were everyone is always welcome

Well ladies in blogland its Monday and time to start the week again, at the Barnes homestead. My girls and I have been washing laundry, which consist of sheets, blankets, and curtains. I have just started making my own homemade laundry soap and boy oh boy sugar pies do I love it. Then we hang them on the clothes line were the breeze is blowing and the temperature outside is in the mid 90s. Oh how I love the smell of fresh sheets and towels that are drying in the summer sun.


Then it is time to take out the iron board and iron all of the sheets and curtains so that we can place them back up to all the windows, this is alot of work but it makes your home so pretty and welcoming, the beds now have clean linen and the windows have fresh clean and pressed curtains, Oh What a Beautiful Day........








Then its on to make the bread for the week, What a wonderful smell fresh loaves of sourdough bread in all different shapes.... We will be well feed all this week. .... Making cakes , pies, cookies, muffins, and breads is one of the things that I love to do with my daughters we have a great time and then we freeze what we are not gone to eat so that we will have it when we need it.






Soon in a couple months it will be time to start getting everything ready to can all of our jams and vegetables for the winter months to come. Fresh bread and homemade jam...hmmmm yummy to my tummy.



Now light a candle and play some great classical or just plain christian music and get to going yall



So just to let you know there is alot that will be going on in here today, which we have took the week off from school so that we can get prepare to celebrate the fourth of July. Now we did take turns reading Bible verses before we got started because it is important to include God in everything that we do...... So since I can be slow at times trying to get everything done (I'm only human ) : ) I will be getting off trying to finish out the day, dinner is cooking in the crock pot which is a bottom round roast that I will be serve potatoes and carrots with a salad and fresh homemade sourdough bread. See you guys tomorrow and don't forget the giveaway ends on Friday.....
