What is a Domestic Goddess?

Definition of Domestic: of or relating to the household or the family, devoted to home duties and pleasures  

Definition of Goddess: a woman whose great charm or beauty arouses adoration

(both definitions from http://www.merriam-webster.com)
 
No matter what we do every day, every woman deserves to be a Domestic Goddess a person devoted to her home and family, and who arouses (much deserved) adoration.  But sometimes, with work, soccer, cheerleading, pets, kids, husbands, social obligations and charity work - there's not enough time left to be the Goddess you were at the start of your domestic life!

Goddesses UNITE!  Instead of working at it alone, here is a place to give tips to one another - how to make it easier - cleaning tips, multi-tasking tips, scheduling tips, cooking tips, self pampering tips.  Please post here and share your tips with one another, so that us Goddesses can work together!

I look forward to bringing our our inner Goddesses!
