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. Cheddar Cheese in a Homemade Cheese Press by Prairie Sunrise.
We admire Marg’s resourcefulness in building her own cheese press and embarking on the cheese making journey.
2. Our Summer Manifesto: Learn to Live Without Grid Electricity by Nourishing Days.
Shannon’s family will be living off-grid and without running water before too long. To prepare, they’re making the adjustment before leaving their current home. This is a journey we look forward to watching and learning from!
3. Fruit in the city, part 2 by the Des Moines Frugal Family Examiner.
An astounding amount of food planted for ornamental reasons goes to waste every year. Gleaning helps line your pantry and solves mess and pest problems associated with unharvested fruit.
4. Homemade “Magic” Shell by The Purposed Heart.
This looks like a nourishing treat for a hot summer’s day!
5. Which Saves the Most Money –- Dehydrating, Freezing or Canning?

Thanks for hosting the party. I’ve got to say, my day is not long enough to try out all these wonderful recipes and ideas. It’s so hard to choose one!
Happy Thursday! I am sharing my recipe for Curried Chicken Chopped Salad. This recipe takes a little bit of time to chop everything up but the flavor makes it all worthwhile!
