It’s Simple Lives Thursday! My favorite day of the week where you share your tips and recipes for living a simple life. Below you’ll find the linky to add your post to.
Please read and follow the Simple Lives Thursday bloghop rules
1. If linking real, traditional and simple recipes, please make sure all ingredients used are whole. Such as whole grains, vegetables, legumes, meats, even sugar. In order to keep the integrity of “nourishing” food, we will delete any recipes that utilize processed, boxed foods. We are definitely not going to be ingredient policeman, however, please note that this is a hop hosted by advocates of the real, local and sustainable food movements.
2. Please link your posts back to one of the hosting blogs. This is a common blog hop courtesy. This link helps build the Simple Lives Thursday community by sending your readers to all of the other participants posts. We all end up sharing and learning from each other.
Featured Posts – The hosts will be choosing five posts from the previous SLT to highlight each week. Those chosen will be promoted and linked on all five host blogs. As a highlighted post you will also have the chance to win in special giveaways that we will be starting soon — another great reason to link up and share all that you do to live a simple and intentional life!
Featured Posts from Last Week’s Submissions
The posts from last week that really caught our eyes are… (thanks everyone for the great submissions, as always!)
1. In Which We Share a Great Find by Auburn Meadow Farm.
As advertisers reuse nostalgic ads from the past to sell modern products and politics, this blogger finds inspiration and encourages all to plant gardens and put up your own food!
2. We Suck At This by Chicken Tender.
Amidst the flood of must-be-done-now projects and honest doubts about farm life, Chandelle finds beauty and strength — and hope.
3. Refashion: I Made a Purse Today by The Summer House.
Jana makes a purse from the existing pockets of grey linen pants. Lovely!
4. Project Propagate: My Adventure in Rooting Cuttings by An Austin Homestead.
It’s amazing that you can cut off a branch from an existing plant, pot it up and have a brand new plant take root — and Miranda shows you how!
5. Vinegar in Every Room by Laurel of Leaves.
Who knew vinegar was so useful? In this post, Laurel shares many ways you can use vinegar for cooking, cleaning, gardening, first aid, and health.

Hi Diana! I shared my recipe for Italian Sausage Sauce On Zucchini Ribbon “Pasta”. Since the zucchini takes the place of “real” pasta, this dish is very low carb and is naturally gluten free.
Thanks for hosting!

Good morning! Thanks for hosting! Today I linked up a recipe for pizza flavored sourdough crackers that’s a twist on the recipes in the GNOWFGLINS sourdough e-book. (If you’re new to sourdough, I highly recommend this book!) These crackers are delicious and pretty easy to make. My son does the mixing and cutting and I do the baking.
Miranda says
Thanks so much for featuring my article! You give me inspiration to keep writing every day.

Thanks for hosting these parties. The post on white vinegar taught me about a couple of new uses for vinegar around the house which I will certainly adopt.

In a short time, I’ve gotten so many great ideas from everyone blogging here. Thanks everyone for spending the time to share!
