Bess Hawthorne has been keeping a home with her husband for 29 years. In this episode she shares her journey of homemaking and raising 5 kids, juggling some homeschooling and some working out side the home for nearly 3 decades.
We cover all the usual ground of beginnings, influences, priorities, challenges and more. Her homemaker fail story will have you clutching your pearls and rolling with relieved laughter. It's one of the best worst fails I've heard in nearly 5 years of podcasting!
Bess offers some great ideas for inviting kids into homemaking and she draws from her own experience and her podcast guests’ suggestions to give lots of hot tips for recipes and hospitality.
