No apologies

I just read a great quote in my new favorite Magazine called Mary Jane's Farm and I just had to share it...

Whenever I get one of those questionaires and they ask what is your profession, I always put down 'housewife'.  It's an admirable profession; why apologize for it?  You aren't stupid because you're a housewife.  When you're stirring the jam, you can read Shakespeare.
~Tasha Tudor

I am proud to be a housewife.  And prouder still that I have a husband willing to support my profession.
