That Damn Donna Reed

I would very much like to go back to a 50s and 60s way of living. I love staying home with Reid. I love cleaning my house. I love the feeling of sitting down after a long day of cleaning my house and smelling Lysol. I like to cook. I want to wear aprons while I do so. I want a sewing machine so I can make aprons. I want to sew curtains and pillows and skirts.

I want to finish the sweater I started knitting back in April.

I want to make thoughtful handmade gifts that look pretty and are useful.

I want to bake cookies or casseroles or cakes for friends who are having a baby or a birthday or a rough day or because it's Tuesday and who wouldn't like a casserole or a cake?

I want to make pot roast.

I don't actually know what pot roast is. But it's good to have goals.
