    Laura…you can maximize your avocado haul by slicing them in half, rub each slice with lemon, vacuum seal, and freeze. I’ve been doing this since September 2022 and it’s been a life saver. I just want to say that I ENJOY your channel VERY much. I have learned how to use essential oils in both my cleaning and cooking, I have changed my dependency on cleaning products (I’m still working on laundry soap), and I have been cooking/baking from scratch more often. Remember, sometimes the old item is the best item. Thank you! (I need to go and make some lip balm and FYI, your eczema salve has helped me with my skin condition 😊)…

Today as I was grabbing my old falling to pieces laundry basket, pieces just flew all over haha my mom keeps trying to find me a new replacement and I just keep returning to sender lol I thought I was the only one holding on to my old faithful laundry basket. Glad to know others are out there ;)
    I am the exact same way! Mess bothers me…and boy is there messes and things that get out of place with a large family! Haha but like you said, it’s easier to clean as you go, it takes a minute to scrub a dirty pan right after use versus waiting and scrubbing for 10 minutes. Or pick up things that aren’t in their places as you see them versus waiting there are like 100.

    Refreshing to see someone who is like myself when it comes to decorating. I love seeing houses decorated, and would love to have all the things. But I just can’t. I go “all out” for Christmas and that just means putting up the tree and garland on my staircase. Maybe some pine cones here and there. I feel like a bad homemaker with my lack in decorating when I see all these other RUclips homemakers with pretty decorated houses but… it’s just not me. Plus you have to find a place to store all that stuff. I’m struggling to store my 4 (soon to be 5) kids stuff, why take up space with seasonal decor. I love how simple and realistic your home is (I love Lisa’s house too, but that’s more of a dream than reality for me!), it’s always comforting to see “average” houses that aren’t 100% Pinterest perfect

    I wonder if you get a salary for all the house work and child care you do almost exclusively alone?
    One thing that stood out to me when I used to be a Christian is how a wife is taught that she needs to show gratitude to her husband for “providing” for her as if all of her endless and repetitive 24/7 work does not count as an earned right to the housing, clothing, and food he “provides.”
    It is all posed as if the husband’s provision is a charitable gift while wife’s work is nothing to be regarded as being entitled to paid wages or provisions.
    In society in general, Men need rewards for their contributions such as respect and the right to rule. However, women’s contributions are expected to be done for joy’s sake and taken for granted. No rewards for women, only joy and serving from the heart 😂
    If I submit to my husband in everything, meaning I literally give up every human right I have, and with it I give up all Status since I have no rights anymore to decide anything for myself, how then is the husband the one praised for sacrificing and giving himself up for his wife? 🤔
    At that point the husband is only rationing increments of rights back to his wife and then praised for sacrificing himself for her as if she did not just do the same thing for him first. Again it’s that reward system for men while taking women for granted.
    It is this type of bullshit and mental gymnastics found in the Bible that made me realize the verses on male headship are rooted in pride and ego. Is all about status for men and humiliation for women.
    I’ve been both a housewife and a career woman at different times in my life, and I can tell you that being a housewife and mother was way more physical and mental work than having an established career outside the home. I hope one day society finally acknowledges and rewards women for those roles and contributions to society instead of posing it like they are freeloading off their husbands generosity.
