A heartfelt conversation about what a "homemaker" is, WHO is a homemaker, and what's the point and purpose of it anyway? Can the microwave meal be part of homemaking?  Can the full-time career woman be a homemaker?   (Our answers may surprise you).  Shaye shares some inspirational quotes about the art of homemaking and Angela says homemaking is a state of mind for the single woman in her flat to the mom of fifteen children.   We're ALL homemakers.   Even our one male listener: "Frank".   Welcome, Frank to Homemaker Chic!Don't forget!  Show you chic love with a five-star rating and a review!   Our love comment of the week was the BEST and shows that @Jess.raber "gets" the self-deprecating aspect of the show! “While listening to this week’s episode, I was sipping a wonderful La Croix, key lime flavor, canned in 2020, while wearing scrubs and no lipstick, driving home from an evening shift in the behavioral health ER.
