Issue #87

Hello Reader,

Happy Thursday! The dog days of summer have arrived and we are finding ourselves retreating to the air conditioning more and more in the middle of the day. That is giving me more time to work on some deep cleaning and decluttering tasks. Last week I got my boys' room cleared out, which was so refreshing!

Do you ever feel like homemaking has become one long to-do list? Like you’re rushing from room to room but never truly living in your home?

I’ve felt it too. That tug toward something gentler. Simpler. Slower.

This week on the blog, I’m sharing The Elements of Slow Living, and how they can transform the way we approach our homes and our days. From mindful routines to seasonal rhythms, these ideas have brought so much peace to my own homemaking.

Whether you’re folding laundry, cooking dinner, or wiping little faces, there is beauty in the ordinary. You don’t have to rush through it. You can move slowly, intentionally, and with joy.

I like to add some simple touches to our home to make it more cozy.

🌸 Favorite Cozy Home Items on Amazon:

• ​Gooseneck Electric Tea Kettle - I still use my kettle on the stove, but I think this will be my next kettle purchase.
• ​Pretty Tea Set - My kids love teatime and this set is so pretty!
• ​Cast Iron Skillet - I use my cast iron daily to cook nourishing meals.
• ​Apron - When I'm doing a lot of cooking, I wear this apron.
• ​Flower Press Kit - We love preserving flowers from our nature walks.

My latest video on YouTube is a little day in the life. While I do talk about homeschooling because it's a big part of our days, I also just share what a typical day at home is like for me. You can watch below.
