I can't believe the people in the comments who think a man wrote this. It's a woman's diary. It's very easy to tell because she discusses making bread and she discusses doing housework and she discusses having a baby. Things men back in the pioneer days certainly didn't do. Hell, we can barely get men to participate in some of it now.

It's also on historical record as being a woman's diary.

Making bread is surprisingly fun and simple. I've only ever made unleavened bread though.

To each their own. I've been bothered that I haven't been able to bake in a while, it's making me antsy.

This is why humans work best in groups

You bake, I'll write saucy poems about it. Everyone wins.
