We have noticed that quite a few blogs are not linking back to one of the Simple Lives Thursday host blogs (see guideline #2, below). If this is you, please realize that this prevents us from choosing you as a featured blog. Thank you for linking back to us!
It’s Simple Lives Thursday! My favorite day of the week where you share your tips and recipes for living a simple life. Whichever blog that you choose to link up your post, it will show up on all 4 sites! As a reminder, this blog hop is a way to share with many people your posts on what you are doing to live a simple life. Whether that’s gardening, raising urban chickens, homeschooling, sewing, making your own deodorant, or cleaning supplies… we want to know about it! If you’re into homeopathy, ways to save $ by conserving energy or other ways to live frugally… we want to know about it! If you bike, cook real food, homestead or farm… we want to know about it!
Your Hosts (for the time being, due to hosts taking breaks)
- Wardeh from GNOWFGLINS
- Alicia from Culinary Bliss
- Me!
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.
3. No giveaway away or otherwise primarily advertising oriented posts. Keep your topics to fit our simple living theme of “consume less, produce more.” We will delete posts that don’t fit.
Featured Posts from Last Week’s Submissions
We really enjoy reading your posts each week! Featured post bloggers, please grab the badge above and display it on your site! Link it to one of the host blogs’ posts for the specific week that you were featured.
Here are our picks from last week’s submissions. Thanks to all who participated — it is always hard to choose!
1. Easy BLT Fritatta by This Chick Cooks.
“Skillet fried bacon, wilted greens (such as kale, spinach or chard), tomatoes, egg and fresh basil create this winning egg dish.”
2.Why You Should Add Salt to Your Food Storage by A Separate Path.
“Salt is a very important item to add to your preparedness pantry. It is useful for so many things, and it never goes bad! Plus, it can always be used as a barter item when times get really tough.” This post shares many uses!
3. Wild Huckleberry Lemonade from Montana Solar Creations.
“I started with a basic homemade lemonade recipe and added pureed huckleberries. Oh. my. goodness. It is so delicious!”
No wonder they were chosen to be featured! It all looks amazing! 🙂 … How are you Diana? 🙂 How is baby doing? We need more pics! 🙂
Joining the coffee party tomorrow? I hope so! 🙂
you’ll see me here next Thursday… My recipe this week doesn’t really have anything “whole grain” or anything like that… but I promise I’ll have something good next time! 🙂
Thank you for featuring my huckleberry lemonade, I have the button on my blog! Thank you for hosting and enjoy your day, I can’t wait to read through all the other posts!
I share some yummy grain free brownies. These are our favorite!
also, how do we become a host for simple lives Thursday?
Fellow bloggers Foy and Marigold and myself are hosting a new blog hop – we’d love for you crafters, foodies and gardeners to post some of your favorite posts there as well! The more links the merrier!
