Nanna’s Home Hints
Our mother’s and grandmothers grew up around the house, following their mother’s around and learning everything there is to know about being a good housewife, from getting out stains, to making home bread to darning socks.
Unfortunately with the increase in modern technology and the push from women’s liberation, many of these old tips, and secrets have over time been lost.
Many of these secrets do save us time and money, so I thought I would dig around, ask some questions, and ask Nanna about some of those secrets.
