This Month From Peggy
This letter brings with it a happy heart. I pray it sees you well. This page of the Gazette will be kept for personal things. Lines I might not have written on a blog where anyone can happen upon them. I have some things on my mind I will share with you during this year of friend and fellowship.

A Woman’s Altar
It is here that I want to share with you something that is near and dear to my heart. I have embarked on a personal study to learn the names of God and want to use this space each issue to share with you my findings.

Domestics Notebook
Oh, the things we make with our hands! So many little treasures we can add to our nest. As a tiny wren flits here and hither looking for just the perfect blade of grass, the right length twig or the most softest of feathers…so it is with women. We are instilled from little up with a need to pretty our surroundings, if only with a little touch of pretty handmakings. Our first pretty shared here will be a…

My Country Larder
It is here that we feed a large family as well as live on one paycheck for all grocery needs. I am excited to have this little page to bring to you how we can do it. I am a traditional cook raised by a 50′s mommy and grandmothers, mothers of my parents before her depression era cooks. I have some good basic and hearty recipes that you will not find in today’s “borrow from the bank for the ingredients” cookbooks.

Study Hall
The Proverbs 31 Woman: A Woman for Today
We have all heard the comments about the woman of Proverbs 31. She has been laughed at, mocked, been the object of conversation at many women’s fellowship groups and sadly forgotten by many Christian women. Some might say she is not real, she is a myth, while still others may think she is not a “woman for today.” Mainstream churches have shrugged off the validity of the Proverbs 31 woman. Woman of today think they will never attain her qualities. They read down through the verses and get quickly overwhelmed and bypass the beautiful wisdom found there.

Little House Times
I know alot of us love and respect Laura Ingalls Wilder and the early years of her life as Laura. I would like to write interesting trivia as well as favorite quotes I love from her books and why. I will tell you why I chose that particular quote.

Earthy Stuff
The garden continues to rest, deep in it’s slumber, it regains some strength from it’s faithful giving to our family last summer. It’s giving was above and beyond the call of duty. As I look down over my list for a new garden year, of planning and of planting; things that did well, where we could have planted a bit less, where we could have planted a bit more…

My Reading Chair
A favorite book I am excited to bring to you this month is one from my personal book shelf. One worth having for a look over and over is…

Plain and Fancy
I want to share with you in the first several issues a day trip which my dear husband, John took me on this past autumn. Most of you know that I love the Amish people and their way of life, protect why I do and now I will share why. The simplicity of their lives and the love they have for that life and for each other is beautiful…

Homewifery
So much I have for this spot! You know I enjoy this topic very much from the articles I have written on my blog. Where shall I begin sharing with you? Hmmm…with March upon us, it would naturally occur to me to talk about Spring housecleaning, but with all that I’ve shared in the past, it seems that another subject is in order, one that may pinch a bit.
