I'm not a tradwife either, but wouldn't it be cool if that word meant women who can do cool and lovely things around the home without the patriarchal overtone? I made a dress this week, much like my Mennonite ancestors and my Conservative Mennonite cousins. I don't believe many of the things they believe, but I enjoyed making and wearing the dress!
I would join your cottage core group. I have struggled often with how much joy I get out of cooking and baking due to the patriarchal overtones. And yet, its my way to be creative and yet practical - so I claim it.
I want your serviceberry jam recipe! Mine are too young yet to bear fruit, but they are growing nicely and I need to be prepared. On another note, Elderberry seems to be super easy to grow and has lots of good, edible and drinkable uses.

Super easy! A 2:1 ratio of berries to sugar, a little lemon juice, a little vanilla. Boil.
