Hi!☺️

My name is Melissa,I'm in my 20s,

I'm a homemaker,have too many hobbies,

I'm Dutch(The Netherlands) and I love anything cottagecore, femininity, traditional living,crunchy,

homesteading and homemaking related.

I reblog anything I think is cute, pretty, funny or interesting. Sometimes a share my thoughts or share little bits of my life on here.

I'd like to keep things as wholesome and friendly as possible here.

No NSFW! No Kink!

No Misandry or any kind of hate!

Please remember;

I reblog anything I like from anyware.

This does not automatically mean I support the person(I've reblogged from) in anything they have ever posted, said or done.

If I had to check everyone everytime,

Tumblr simply wouldn't be fun anymore.

It also simply isn't realistic.

I also don't really like to get political too much either. I don't care who you are, where you're from,who you love or who you vote for.

You do you, as long as you're not hurting anyone you're alright with me.

Let's be friends!

Any questions?

My asks are open! Ask away ☺️

Please remember, I'm just a human🩷

You know the parable about how the foolish man built his house upon sand and the wise man built his house upon rock and it’s always about having a sturdy foundation well there is also the fact of location which is that the sand probably used to be rock except it’s been eroded to sediment because it’s a FUCKING FLOODPLAIN

I feel like a dumbass, but @rapidashmascot just revolutionised my understanding of that parable.

This is what I'm talking about when I say I like traditionalism.

I like old traditional ways of living.(Not all)

I like looking back at history, look at the way my grandmother and grandfather lived. The ways they survived, the way they ate, the way they celebrated.

Etcetera etcetera.

For me personally this means I do more of the work in our house and my partner does more work outside the house. That's our personal choice and I don't think this is how everyone should live because I'm aware this isn't for everyone.

But this also means I like traditional Dutch wooden clogs.(The oldest wooden footwear so far recovered in Europe was found at Amsterdam and Rotterdam in the Netherlands. These date from c. 1230 and c. 1280)

I like traditional Dutch customs like the fact we always have birthday calendars in our bathrooms.

Or we like to eat bread with 'hagelslag'(1919) or "chocolate sprinkles".

I like the tradition of decorating our front garden with signs flags and other crazy things when a baby is born, a person turns 25 or 50, or people have been married for a certain amount of years!

I like how we used to all have gardens, grow some of our own food and have animals.

I like how we took the time to hand make beautiful things!

I'd like to keep some of those things alive by gardening like my grandfather did,

cook, bake, love and nurture like my grandmother did.

This doesn't make me less bisexual,

egalitarian, open-minded, antiracist ETC.

This doesn't make me a bad person.

This also doesn't make anyone who doesn't live like I do a bad person.

This just makes me a human with an interest in some of the good from the past and wishes to take some of the good to today and keep the bad things from the past, in the past.

I do NOT want to go back in time.

I DO want to keep beautiful traditions alive.

Realized I can write the year's worth of birthday cards all in one go so all I have to do is stick them in the mailbox in the appropriate month. Now you know too. I don't know why I never considered this before but in case anyone needed this hidden knowledge 💖

I’m content with the quiet things, the soft times, and the gentle moments. I’m at peace in the rain, reading on a porch as the wind so gently blows by. I’m satiated by the way the leaves rustle, and the gentle dance of the branches. I’m contented by the little pieces of time in living.

fun fact of the week: a lot of plants can be used as natural dyes! blueberries, red cabbage, and yellow onions are all potential dyed you can grow in a garden, while maple leaves and dandelions are some that can be foraged!
