Description:Dana Clover (also known as The Homesteading Housewife) lives outside of Houston, Texas. She is happily married to the Man of Her Dreams, and together they raise their five children (4 boys and one girl) on their small family farm. On The Homesteading Housewife, Dana shares her humorous stories, recipes, tricks and tips about everything from domestic topics such as gardening, canning and quilting to the mishaps/lessons of parenthood to keeping that spark alive in your marriage. She writes as if you're a girlfriend sitting across the table, both of you enjoying a tall glass of sweet tea and good conversation. Dana spends a great deal of her time laughing at herself for being so imperfect amongst the countless self-proclaimed "perfect", idealized mothers on the Internet.
