Aprons- Y/N? No.  I have one of my late grandmother's, but I can never seem to remember to wear it.

Baking- Favorite thing to bake? Bread, muffins, just about anything.

Clothesline- Y/N? Yep.  I absolutely love it.

Donuts- Ever made them? Nope, but would like to one day.

Everyday- One homemaking thing you do everyday? Cook.

Freezer- Do you have a separate deep freezer? We used to and are hoping to get one again soon.

Garbage Disposal- Y/N? Nope...but our dog and cat eat very well.

Handbook- Y/N? No - why?

Ironing- Love it or hate it? I don't mind ironing when I have to, but with line-drying everything, I don't have to do as much (thank goodness!).

Junk Drawer- Where is it? None.

Kitchen- Design and decorating? Our home is a "work in progress" so it's very country w/ a buffet, armoir and a few wall cabinets.  I love roosters so many of the items in there have roosters on them.

Love- What is your favorite part of homemaking? Laundry, quilting, gardening

Mop- Y/N?  Yes.  I have a "special towel" that I use - simply splash cleaner (usually a mixture of Dawn and water) all over the floor and "skate" around the floor on the towel to clean it.  Hubby came up w/ this way and it really works wonders.  The kids think it's a blast so they always want to help.

Nylons- Wash them by hand or in the washer? Washer.

Oven- Do you use the window or open it to check? I discovered the oven light - what a marvelous invention.  Now I use the light.

Pizza- What do you put on yours? I like everything except anchovies. 

Quiet- What do you do during the day when you get a quiet moment? Read.  I'm reading War & Rememberance right now by Herman Wouk.  It's an awesome book.

Recipe card box- Y/N? No.  I actually have little "kitchen diaries" that I use.  I cut out or print recipes and tape them into the diaries and those become cookbooks for me.  I just started my 4th one.

Style of house- 2 story barn.

Tablecloths and napkins- Y/N? Neither.

Under the kitchen sink- Nothing.

Vacuum- How many times a week? We don't have carpet so thankfully I never have to vacuum, but we do sweep every day or every other day.

Wash- How many loads do you do a week? Probably 12-15.

X’s- Do you keep a list of things to do and cross them off? Don't need one.

Yard- Who does what? Hubby takes care of it except for gardening which we all do (although he'll till the area and help plant)

ZZZ’s- What is your last homemaking task for the day? Picking up right before bed.

If you read all of this, consider yourself tagged

I love the 2 story barn. I am always telling my children that I would love a barn house.
Blessings,
Trixi
