A Goode Ladye's Press

I received the yummiest mail the other day. I subscribed to A Goode Ladye's Press and love it. It is a wonderful newspaper written but Katie Estvold at Home Keeping Heart's. As Katie says Goode Press is written in an 18th. century broadside (I had to look that up and see what that means. So I thought you might have to, too. See what you learn reading Goode Press) . Volume one comes with a Miss. Ginny paper doll and each issue has a goode thing for Ginny (plus other goode's). I have to say it was a very interesting read. I will never look at my hair produces the same ;-) I like that it was just tidbit of information that I really did not know. Aubern'e really loved it to. We have had several discussions about how life use to be. I think it is an awfully pretty way to learn history. Thank you Katie and well done. I am looking forward to the next issue.

Well I will (hopefully) be done painting today. It has been a long week (plus David is gone fishing for 5 days) I had to strip all the painting I did on the wood trim and sand it all. Sighhh, it is done. Thank goodness. Okay I will not whine anymore. I will try to put my house back in order (it is a wreak here) and then come and put my blog back in order. So hang in there with me. I hope things are calmer at your house and happy May day xoxoxox

You are soo soo sweet to be putting a work of my heart on your blog. I adore my paper, and am SO happy that you love it as well! I look forward to sending you more!
Yes, our house has been this crazy lately with painting,and is finally calming down. I tend to get "Let's-paint" in the spring.

Hi Clarice,

Things are looking lovely and inspiring here, as always. I need to do some painting too, but I've been putting it off and putting it off!

I subscribed to Katie's paper last year, and enjoyed it, as well.

Thank you for your sweet messages....yep, that's me! When I was about 3 or 4.

xoxo

That paper looks so neat, I'm going to have to check it out. Good luck with painting it can be such a pain, but in the end will be fabulous. Hope you can enjoy the process even if it's just a little bit.

Hugs,
Kelli

Somehow my name didn't get attached to my comment so I'm leaving it again so you know it was me.

What a fun newspaper and so full of things to learn and do. I love stuff like this. There's something to be said for reading about the past, we can either find ways to be grateful that we have easier ways today or we can discover that some of the old ways will work just as well now as they did then.

That looks interesting! I love that sort of thing. No, things are not calmer at my house LOL! I spent most of yesterday trying to get my house together. We're having a garage sale in a few weeks so I've been going through stuff. I'm not fond of having garage sales...I like going to them but not having them!
