Each Tuesday, The HomeKeeper’s Journal is led by Sylvia at CHK. You’re welcome to join The HomeKeeper’s Journal, too. The theme this week is difficulties. Actually very timely for me. Even though my life is good and blessed, I am not immune to daily personal difficulties. Enough said.
Piper’s Kids
July 15, 2010 By 10 Comments
The Lord works in mysterious ways. His timing can’t be beat. 
When I was home alone — the kids in California and Jeff also out of town — Piper went into labor. She is the goat who we never saw go into heat. We felt she must be pregnant but we had no idea when she would give birth.
Crockpot Castile Soap
May 14, 2010 By 56 Comments
When I started making soap, I learned from the book Handcrafted Soap, by Dolores Boone. It is well worn – though I don’t follow the recipes, I follow the technique. I love the hot process soap method because it is fast and pretty hands-off. My style. My soap can be in the molds in about an hour and half, with only 15 minutes of hands-on time. Then the next day, it takes about 15 minutes to cut up the bars. Half hour soap!

The Demise of The Drake
May 11, 2010 By 18 Comments
One of the recent changes on our homestead has been getting ducks. We’re starting with raising Muscovy ducks for meat. We purchased three hens and The Drake from a local lady. This post is not only about the fun of these ducks, but about the demise of The Drake.
Mother’s Day Pictures

How was your Mother’s Day? Ours was wonderful! Jeff’s parents surprised us with a visit; Jerry (Jeff’s dad) was in Oregon for business so they extended their trip to stay with us for a few days. Judy and I both had an agenda – pictures. She wanted updated pictures of us for Jerry’s new office. And I wanted pictures… just because. I realize that there’s alot to catch up on Such Treasures. But because I can’t possibly catch up, I am just going to jump in, and try to fill in the blanks as I go.

Step Into My Office, Please
December 29, 2009 By 10 Comments
I did some rearranging yesterday of my “office” – to create a nicer background for videoing myself in gnowfglins.com teaching videos. Also, how was your Christmas? Ours was restful and quiet – we had a sickie in the house.
Merry Christmas! (Again)
