The Life of a Homemaker                                                      August 18, 1722

Dear Diary,

I finished drying the herbs and fruits. Tonight is my birthday celebration, friends and family are coming to eat and celebrate! I am going to make the best Vegetable Meat Soup and for dessert my signature Apple Pie! I mended all the clothes (I worked extra hard on my favorite work dress. The children are asleep so i’m going to haul water for laundry. The laundry is done and and the family is here. I have had the best day ever! Tomorrow I teach the children to read, also next Wednesday all ladies and girls will quilt, make soap,and make candles! Like I said BEST DAY EVER!!!!!

Goodnight,

Lexi
