About
Hi. I’m Kate and I talk entirely too much. The purpose of this website is to keep my husband’s brain from exploding .
However, if you’re not afraid of a few [thousand] additional words every few days, you’re welcome to take a peek at the [often convoluted] inner-workings of my mind. You can subscribe with a feedreader or opt to receive updates via email.
A Tiny Request
This domain is only the most recent in a series of blogs with unfortunate endings. Whenever I think too long about this curious practice of publishing one’s journal to the internet, it leads to all sorts of fear, anxiety, and the subsequent abandonment of the entire thing.
So, if you ever want to link to me, or add me to your list of friends and family on your own blog, I ask that you please not share our last name. Using either Kate, Katie, or Simply Mother will be much appreciated. This will help protect our anonymity and possibly help deter yet another blog-demolition. Thank you!
Details, Details
I am developing a healthy relationship with cooking and cleaning [this will probably be a life-long undertaking] and am ever searching for quicker, easier, and cheaper ways to serve my family whole, nutritious meals and keep our home neat and, you know, rodent-free.
Love to read, learning to sew, trying to convince myself I’m capable of doing other crafty things, and otherwise becoming a regular, 50’s-style homemaker–something I never dreamed I would enjoy.
We are homeschoolers–or maybe unschoolers (depending on which direction your coming from). We’re Mormons. And if that’s not enough, we’re into a few other weird things like cloth diapers and home birth
My cute husband Matt supports me in a hundred million different ways and together we created Sariah (6), Jane (3), and Mary (Tiny).They teach me more than I ever knew I didn’t know.
