I'm an amazing cook, but I can't take credit for that. I come from a long line of good cooks, and the teaching got passed down. My great-grandmother taught me knife skills when I was 6 (much to my mother's horror.) I watched her cook all the time. Her daughter was a good cook, and taught me as well. Of course, I grew up with my mom teaching me everything she's learned. One of my most treasured possessions is my little card box full of family recipes.

My latest household skill was teaching my new dog how to ask to go outside, instead of peeing in the hallway. Now she's very good at telling me what she needs , and we haven't had an accident in over a month. I think we're in the clear.

I damp wet mop all the floors and shake the area rugs every night before I go to bed. I live in a small house so it’s not very too much.

This way in the morning the floors are clean for my children to play on the floor.

I don't patchke at all, but I cook wholesome, tasty, often healthy food. My family and guests have only compliments. My sister thinks I'm the ultimate balebusta; much as I try telling her that I use as many shortcuts as I can. I have never even made a potato kugel.

I use Amazon subscribe and save for lots of household items so we don’t run out.

How about (educated guess here), "I dress my kids beautifully and adorably" ?

Same.

I'll try another guess here-
"I am determined and dedicated to stretch myself far in order to pay for my kids yeshiva" ?
