The Way Things Are
What is a Scripture-believing woman’s role? What is her Scriptural place in the marriage? We find answers to a wife’s role in both what Yah said to Eve (Chava) and to Adam:
Genesis 3
16 To the woman he said,
“…. Your desire will be toward your husband, but he will rule over you.”17 To Adam he said,
“Because you listened to what your wife said and ate from the tree about which I gave you the order, ‘You are not to eat from it,’ the ground is cursed on your account; you will work hard to eat from it as long as you live.
Free Pattern for Dishcloths
I shared this on my blog, and I knew it would go well here too. I don’t know how to crochet and knit well yet, but I am hoping to have time to learn in the near future. I sure would like to learn to make this: Free Dishcloth Pattern. These are actually knitted, but either way, what a useful thing to make?
THIS ONE is cute too!
I also found very useful instructional videos on knitting and crocheting on YouTube. I saved them to my “Channel” for Knitting and Crocheting if you are interested!
Now, Rachel is pretty good at crocheting and knitting. She has made a really pretty scarf. Hannah can do it, so can Eric, and even Isaac is pretty good at crocheting!
I even thought about using it for a knitting or crocheting class class… What do you think?
Making The Home: Clean Stovetop
One of my pet-peeves is having the stove grimy. With so many chefs in the house the stove can get pretty messy. Like any thing if you take a few minutes each day or a few times a week to really clean up the stove it will always be an easy job. On our stove there are trays for each burner that can be removed to be cleaned. I remove the trays and set them in a tub of hot, soapy water. Then I spray down the top of the stove with a spray bottle, usually just with water, and then wipe it down after a minute or two.
To clean the trays I like using wool-steel (also called brillo-pads). If any food or liquid was spilled on the tray and then burned it will be tough to get off, but the wool-steel just scrubs it right off. I always make sure to wipe down the top where the clock/timer display, burner dials, front of the oven door, and front of the warmer drawer. When you’ve cleaned everything up dry off the trays and put them back off.
There is nothing like a nice clean stove in your kitchen and when you’re cooking!
