Plastic-covered furniture

So I discovered this.

I think I'm going to add it to my Reader. Possible.

Yeah, I can get behind that. I have my moments with the whole "50s Housewife" resurgence, moments of both annoyance and triumph, but this site speaks more to me, I think.

It's the idea of being as self-sufficient as possible (without going to extremes, of course) within your particular limits, not regressing back to a weird stereotype. I don't like the idea that women should be subservient to their husbands. I like the idea that intelligent women make a choice to beautify their surroundings and maginify their callings as wives and mothers. Whatever that means to them.

But don't become all needy and co-dependent while doing it.
