Default Homemaking blogs

Do you know of any homemaking blogs that are written from an egalitarian perspective (assuming the blog author is married)?
Thanks in advance

Default Re: Homemaking blogs

Sorry if I'm stupid - does this mean husband and wife share equally in the housekeeping? If so, I haven't come across a blog like that, but a lot of the partner blogs on DIY or personal finance seem to have that spirit at least. younghouselove and Mr Money Mustache are the two that came to mind.

Not necessarily. Just not assumed that the wife does *all* housework.
I would like to see chore calendars with some evening or weekend times in there. And tips/hints in that vein.
In our situation, DH works from home and I'm home too, homeschooling and taking care of the kids. I do the cooking and laundry. DH pretty much does all the dishes (DS1 is learning how to do them along with him now) and cleans the bathrooms with DS1 and DS2 helping.
Sweeping and vacuuming are exchanged. We don't have problems with the way chores are divided up in our family, both DH and I like it this way. I would just like some tools to help me visualize more, so stuff doesn't get forgotten (like dusting ceiling fans).

Thanks for those blog names. I'll check them out
