The Hearth and Soul Blog Hop
Welcome to The Hearth and Soul Hop, a blog hop for recipes using healthy ingredients, family and comfort food recipes, articles about healthy living, real, local and sustainable food, foraging, herbal remedies, organics and gardening. As much as possible, recipes should be homemade from scratch.

My family and I have been celebrating Easter. Here in the UK, Good Friday and Easter Monday are Bank Holidays, meaning that we have a four day weekend. It’s been a lovely time to catch up with family and friends, but I’ve not been doing much in the way of writing or blogging these last few days so if I haven’t managed to visit your post yet please bear with me.

Today I’m featuring three recipes from last week’s hop that would make a wholesome and delicious menu for a celebration dinner.

    Lotta good stuff here! So much to eat, so little stomach capacity! Although, alas, I never let that stop me. 😉

      My pleasure, Mireya! It’s slowly getting a bit warmer here. The sun has been a bit shy these last few days but today is lovely. Hope you have a great weekend too 🙂

The Christmas tree behind me was almost two stories tall and so gorgeous! The scent of fir trees and woodsmoke was in the air, and you could hear the crackle of the logs in the fireplaces. There were lots of sparkly lights too. What a magical evening it was!

They have lots of holiday flavours, warm gingerbread spiked with orange, but honestly, I make them all  year round. They really are that good!

Instagram post 2190975069077257663_179821897 🎄 Have you put up your Christmas decorations yet? 🎄I love hearing about people’s traditions around decorating. So many wait until after a birthday or have a special date to start. I’d love to know what happens at your house!
🎄
My Christmas tree has been up since November 1, but only because I had a photo shoot ini early November. It was too much work to take it down again, and frankly it has brightened the dark mornings. 🎄
The rest of the house took shape last week before our first Christmas party. I’m loving how this swag of greenery, pinecones, feathers and flowers made by my favourite florist @greenparlour looks on my Grandmother’s and my Mom’s sideboard in the kitchen. I think that both these lovely late ladies would approve! .
