a quote by tasha tudor

 {art work by Robert Duncan}
"I enjoy doing housework, ironing, washing, cooking, dishwashing. Whenever I get one of those questionaires and they ask what is your profession, I always put down housewife. It's an admirable profession, why apologize for it. You aren't stupid because you're a housewife. When you're stirring the jam you can read Shakespeare." -Tasha Tudor

  5. Love it!
    Being a housewife is one of the most important jobs a woman can have. *In my opinion*
    We keep family and home life *centered*!
