Homemaker Chic

From one episode a week... to two,  from wondering, "Will anyone listen to this show?" to being a TOP rated Apple Podcast within the first few weeks.   From wondering "Will anyone sponsor us?" to having the BEST sponsors ever!  You made us a HIT and we love you for it.... Even if your trash is showing. We're celebrating a SOLID season of fleshing out ideas and a hysterical seas...

Something about Memorial Day and that official start of summer has us wanting to get our homes back in order, but it's going to take some major spreadsheets and intention.   No victims here!   This is our domain and it's time to make our "pitlists" and get to it!   Join us? We'd love to see you over on Instagram.  Be sure to share how your kicking butt and taking names by tagin...

Green onion wraps, half-dead moles and Superman pajama bottoms?!   That's right Karen!  We're celebrating Shaye's birthday by going back to the world of entertaining and hospitality with a touch of kitten love and airport attire thrown into the mix.  Angela is non-apologetic about pyjama's at the airport and Momma Mia Shaye is whipping up some Italian gnocchi for her birthday.   It...

Shaye's birthday present will be late and Angela can't make chocolate chip cookies and she doesn't want any outside intervention.   She's owning it.  Shaye can leave a trail of death and destruction in her barnyard.... today is all about our EPIC fails.   And to tell the truth, sometimes it's been really tough to pull ourselves up and try again.    " A man learns nothing fr...

"Crazy.   We're crazy for feeling so lonely?"  Cue the Patsy Cline. What are we craving and WHY?   "Stuck" at home and channeling women of bygone era's?   Someone send petticoats and flapper fringe because we have no idea what we're doing here, all we know is that we want to feel feminine.   We want ALL the sexy, warm fuzzies and turns out, we want to dress the part.  ...

A heartfelt conversation about what a "homemaker" is, WHO is a homemaker, and what's the point and purpose of it anyway? Can the microwave meal be part of homemaking?  Can the full-time career woman be a homemaker?   (Our answers may surprise you).  Shaye shares some inspirational quotes about the art of homemaking and Angela says homemaking is a state of mind for the single woman in h...

EPISODE 17.  Freestyle "Blursday" Meets Dirt Dishing We're sipping Dry Farm Wine sparkling white and sharing what's taking place in our gardens.   One of us lives in a desert, the other by the Great Lakes so there's plenty of notes to compare.   We're foraging for spring delicacies,  starting dahlia tubers, ordering new trees, AND turning down the NOISE so we can enjoy the...

Fresh for spring: We can’t walk upright, out hands are trashed and apparently, so are our houses.  What is “garden house” and why is it NOT a good thing?   Our favorite jams to rock out to whilst we clean and why we think you need to crawl around on your hands and knees.  How we’re attempting to keep our homes inspired and tidy during the insane Spring planting season.  Sun in the sky... you know...

Well, it all just came pouring out.   We’re sorry/not sorry.    We’ve hit our boiling point and it’s all just overflowing.   Wasted food, homesteader guilt,  and Shaye rages over approval to take a walk with your child?   In this episode we’re channeling our inner revolutionaries, eating our leather loafers and Ang explains why she never watched the Bachelor.

With no plans at all for what we were going to talk about, we ended up discussing Europe travel memories, Megxit, and quarantine feelings. There was some audio problems. And some tears.
