Homestead Blessings Customer Feedback…

Tuesday, April 14, 2009

“West Ladies—We just want to thank you for sharing your talents with others.  I have been TRYING to make bread for the past 7 years with more failed attempts than anything.  After watching your breadmaking movie my girls and I have been making delicious bread that looks and tastes wonderful! THANK YOU.  I have also been making soap for the past 5 years, but it has never been enjoyable.  I have had to set aside a good 4 to 6 hours to make soap and regulate temps, and stir and stir and stir till my arm wants to fall off.  We watched your soapmaking movie and made a batch of soap according to your recipe and directions, it was so much fun and only took about 40 minutes! It was great, we are going to start getting together with other families and making our soaps together (like a quilting b).  We have never made candles, but are going to order bee’s wax this week and give it a try.  Thank you for not keeping these wonderful talents to yourselves.

—Donna L.”

The Chat

Tuesday, February 24, 2009

From a living room in Middle Tennessee… to Australia, Sweden, England, and all over the United States… last night’s online chat with the West Ladies was a stimulating discussion about agrarianism, simple living, and, of course, the blessing of family and friends…
