Why Did I Wait So Long? Homemaker Day in the Life

[@carolmain9462]

You are such a special mother to Joe Don't be afraid of the trolls Ignore them I see you as such a darling mother

[@lizboudreaux6811]

I think making your face is just like making your bed. You’re ready for the day and you’re always ready to go anywhere.

[@acountrylife]

I agree! 😀

[@karenkissick6884]

As you get older it gets harder to do your makeup. I am always looking for easy to apply makeup.

[@Bex-rg8pj]

Oh my. I’ve always had a career outside the home where business attire was required. Being newly retired, I can’t even think of any reason that would cause me to even put chapstick on my lips! Lol Haven’t worn any makeup in months and don’t plan too!

[@acountrylife]

Too funny!

[@jameskeating4719]

I take care of one child thank you for all the tips n support appreciate you guys well she is a teen now

[@peggystrey8987]

I love your cookbooks. I have both and they are both in my top 5. Your Crusty Mini Loaves are a big favorite. The bran sticks really do take it next level . My two 10 year old granddaughters love them!

[@acountrylife]

Awesome! Thank you for sharing that.

[@debgordon6542]

Hi Jen, don't you just love the almost tween years? They make even chores fun and love spending time with you. So sweet :-) Your pie is perfect for a special occasion; I almost wish it was my birthday lol. Who doesn't love an ice cream pie?!

[@acountrylife]

The homemade fudge made the whole ice cream pie and yea the tween years are fun.

[@debramamula9924]

I love playing Mahjong Social on Facebook. I''ll have to add to my phone. Glad to see you and Maria have a nice day together. Enjoy ❤

[@lanagraham1661]

Hi Jennifer and Maria! So nice to have girl time.😀 Wow, icecream pie. Yum. I love those types of soups. My mother-in-law taught me to cook a lot of old-fashioned Southern recipes - soups, dumplings and stews. Love carrying on some of her traditions.❤

[@acountrylife]

Recipes make for some of the best traditions.

[@melaniemurphy2429]

Your videos are phenomenal! I learn something every time I watch one … even though I’m old enough to be your mother! lol. I hope your weekend is filled with joy 🌸

[@kristenschnese6980]

That pie looks delicious and so did the soup

[@acountrylife]

Thanks. 😀

[@karenkissick6884]

Joe has grown into a man right before my eyes. That blue will look great on him. You look great and make cooking look so easy. I have been in hospital lately with pnemonia and i think it was a good 6 eeeks off feeling eeak as a kitten. This week is better but i am requesting prayers still. I never want to be sick as this again.

[@acountrylife]

Karen, I hope you continue healing and gaining strength. I'm praying for you.

Hello Jennifer I have found a great way to cook your venison Use your bundt cake pan Put all of your ingredients in as well Bake jn oven for 2 hours and keep checking it

[@mollysmith6055]

Love my aprons. A neighbor questioned me about them once ( 'Do you always wear an apron?') and it made me laugh. Thank you for the reminder about the bran bread...I saw a box of that cereal in my pantry a few days ago and couldn't remember why I bought it. So glad you were able to make the ice cream pie! We always have to double the sauce ...chocoholics, apparently. Everybody likes to have extra to drizzle on their piece. I'll make one for Mother's Day this year for Hubby to remember his mom. And if I can find some gluten free vanilla wafers, I'll make one for my daughter and her family. She will remember the many family occasions when her 'Gammy' brought out one of those special pies after one of her wonderful meals. Love your idea to just make up the sauce separately, very smart.

[@acountrylife]

On days I put my apron on rarely does it come off until after supper. It's a clothing saver for sure.

[@WillowsGarden]

Hi Jennifer, Maria and sweet family! I feel blah if I don’t get ready for the day, even if I don’t go anywhere. I bet Joe will look so handsome in his new Tshirt. The blue looks so good on him. Your soup and rolls look so delicious, but that dessert looks really scrumptious. I love that series (Love Comes Softly) definitely one of my favorites. I hope everyone has a blessed night and weekend!

[@acountrylife]

Getting ready for the day sets the tone for the day.

[@roisinpatriciagaffney4087]

Hello Jennifer, and Maria. Can't wait to see you taste test the Ice-cream pie. Looks yummy. Enjoy the movie, girls. God bless the Brockmans.

[@annmittelstadt2938]

Hello Maria and Jennifer, everything you make looks delicious ❤ I love LOVE COMES SOFTLY. I like the part where Clark comes in and Marty is in the tub and he shudders and backs into the hot stove and then falls on the table and hits his head. Funny😂 I still enjoy your videos. I bought the laundry sheets, I'm glad they have Fragrance free. I'm allergic soap. AND ALSO I order the strainer to make applesauce, tomato juice/sauce, and cranberry sauce. Now I also can make raspberry and blackberry jam with out the seeds. ❤ thank you for everything.❤

[@acountrylife]

Love that part too 😍

Jennifer, when I bought your first cookbook I used a credit card. I can't find that option this time to get your second cookbook.

I’m sort of like you in procrastinating to do my freshening up and I say the same as you afterward. What’s the issue other than the burden of doing it when you just get lazy about doing the same old thing over and over again lol. But it works every time. Isn’t that what Einstein said about insanity???? Lol❤

the dichotomy of your needing to ensure you get paid for your time and resources as a producer vs the drive to find cheap (paying $1) for clothing or even more ironic "low cost" food is so very stark

Jane, you can definitely skip through sponsored content. Just double tap the screen on the right side if using a phone or tablet and you will skip ahead 10 seconds. Keep doing that until the segment is over.

If you're going to show yourself putting on makeup you should put the camera level with your face because looking up your nose is definitely not attractive
