I am not sure how to connect with people on here so I keep putting out notes about what I did in a day to try to help me find my people on nostr. Put another way I don’t really want to talk about nostr. Want to talk about other stuff ON nostr. :)

Today I washed all my floors and made several hundred dollars of fiat and processed a vat of chicken bone broth and drove kids around to places despite the snow and did a wicked workout and now it is bedtime goodnight

#plebchain

This is a test lol

Haven’t been in nostr in a while. I find I’m coming here before Twitter now, though - love it!!

Not sure how to find my tribe though…are hashtags not a thing here? #helpme haha

Where are all the other bitcoin mamas who collect books and make tallow soaps and do Pilates and sing Gregorian chant?

[Someone zapped me!?!? Jeepers!!! That’s so cool. Thanks, kind nostrich. I’m humbled. (Can I figure out who so I can zap them back?!)]

Just sipping my nighty night tea in candlelight while eldest daughter serenades on acoustic piano: Venetian Boat Song (Mendelssohn)

it’s ok I’m in heaven good night nostr

Lastly (for now): herbal medicine cabinet. Interested in mushrooms, the idea that what grows around you heals what ails you, Eastern Canada foraging knowledge, and, separately:

My library project. What books do I need to acquire before they are banned? On the other hand, can I help you find a good book or series for your young ones? I have a large and growing collection of “the great books” and a collection of books suitable for pre teenagers and younger kids that are free from moralizing, ugly, patronizing woke ideology. Lover of classics and tales of fairies and whimsy here. Fellow book Moms on Nostr?!?!

Also calling all prepper/kitchen marms to collaborate re smart preps for growing families. What are you growing this season/canning plans/ new endeavours in the kitchen on the horizon?

I’m looking at incubating dual purpose chicks (meat / layers) adapted to cold 🇨🇦 winter; Solar backup for well water pump; topping up stores with more dehydrated things and potentially going down the freeze dryer route (but $$$).

Maybe a stupid question but how do I find the other traditionalist/farmer/pilates/sun maxxing /tallow soap curing ladies on nostr?

Or will they find me? This thing on?

I’ve heard that is a great combo but never tried it. I have nostalgia about crab apple jelly because my grandma made it…light pink, gorgeous in the jar.

Yes, tallow soap is so so good. Cheers.

I’ve never tried to raise lamb! I do enjoy eating it though. I have heard they are prone to parasites but I think our winters are cold enough here that it’s less of an issue. Might check into it. Cheers.
