In this episode, I am chatting with Bess Hawthorne, seasoned homemaker and host of the Come Over for Dinner Podcast, about her experience keeping a home for the last 29 years. She shares her journey of raising 5 kids and juggling some homeschooling and some working out side the home during those years. We cover all the usual ground of beginnings, influences, priorities, challenges and more—she has one of the best homemaker fail stories I’ve heard yet!
Bess offers some great ideas for inviting kids into homemaking and she draws from her own experience and her podcast guests’ suggestions to give lots of hot tips for recipes and hospitality.
