I am a domestic poster girl ...

Hooray ...  Jane's Shiny T Tuesday is back ... and this weeks fashion prompt was ... "A Pin-Up ... Regardless".

Now when I think of Pin-Ups ... I think of the fifties ...which in turn makes me think of the glamorous efficiency of the fifties housewife.

And honestly ... could there be a better fit for me??

Pfffttt ... YES ... just about anything would be a better fit.

But not to be deterred ... I soldiered on and channelled my inner Domestic "Pin-Up ... regardless".

*****

It is the housewife's duty to keep the house spick and span and the home fires burning ... awaiting the return of her hard working husband at the end of each day.

Although a housewife's work is never done ... what with so many wifely chores ... she must always do her best to complete them with a loving smile and a generous spirit.

It is my role in life to create a relaxing oasis of comfort in my husband's home ... free of complaints and problems.  After all he endures so much strain and pressure at work all day long.

So here are just a few of the ways in which I endeavour to be an excellent housewife.

I do my very best to stir the pot.


I tinker with my husband's machinery.


And I try really hard to keep it clean.


I believe that at all times the housewife must look her best and be an asset her hard-working husband can be proud of.

"How was your day, my Dear?  I'm sure it was filled with very important men's business.  Oh what a silly little ninny I am ... as if I'd understand business talk."

"Would you like a drink ... after your hard day ... playing golf and eating lunch and drinking beers ... Darling?"


"Right ... well get your own ... this bottle's MINE!!"
