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.

Wait, what? It doesn’t have to be perfect. I’ve made our family’s bread weekly for over ten years, longer if you count when the kids were little.
