Welcome to the romantic life...with kids...with animals...with muck to shovel...with fun!
What you'll find in The Romantic Mom.com

Rediscover the romance and simplicity of the past with a flair for handlin' pitchforks and avoiding the dust-bunnies. If you're innovative, if you're creative, if you're a home-body with a sense of adventure (and a hankerin' for endless chores), then you've come to the right spot!

If you keep sensing some strange mixture of pioneer and poetry seeping from your bones but are wrapped up in some suburban facade, then shake it all out and come with me for a long romp here in the magnificent Maine countryside (before they spread the manure)!

I'm The Romantic Mom

a.k.a. Deb, a transplanted Texas gal in Maine. I admit I've been kickin' up my heels and a little bit loopy since  abandoning the suburban sprawl for the  bucolic country life. I welcome you to some  large dollops of  the romantic life. Peruse to your heart's content!

What's this Romantic Mom all about?


Bloom where you're planted...

Homespun

Handicrafts and creativity galore...

Imagination fidgety? Hands itchy? Craft bag a little dusty? I have plenty of undone projects to finish...I'm sure you need another one, too!


Homestead

If it looks like Farm, smells like Farm, it must be FARM..

I've still got much to learn, but I've stuck in my big toe and I'm up to my waders now. Come see what we've tackled so far!


What's New

Hot off the press...

A new knitting pattern for the very soft, very adorable eyelet-edged baby blanket that everyone loves--especially the little tikes who get to snuggle up in them so well! And they're OH! So easy! I'd love to see your models! Here is mine! CLICK



Beach House Days

Homeschool

Take a peek! It's fun and unfettered...

We are  a hodge-podge homeschool, very relaxed, enjoying the ride!



Home Life

Home is where the heart is...

Find all sorts of domestic treats from the garden, from the kitchen, throughout the home! Swedish is my fave! Just move over, Martha!


What's Now

Daily Bread

Yesiree, by all means, I am a Christian. I would never have meandered off into this upside-down, don't -know- which- end-is-up kinda lifestyle, if I hadn't by some totally illogical, completely unexplained freak of nature invited Jesus into my heart.  You'd best grab a cup of coffee for more of the nitty-gritty on this topic!  Go ahead and click on me over there fillin' God in on just what's goin' on down here!
