Fresh Produce Recipes & Ideas- The Hearth and Soul Hop

Welcome once again to the Hearth and Soul Hop Link Party! This week I am featuring fresh produce recipes as well as a post on how to help control garden pests naturally.

The party is open from now through Saturday and we welcome all family friendly posts whether they be about home, family, travel, self improvement, crafts or DIY. And of course we love recipes for food from the hearth to feed your soul! Remember both old and new posts are welcome, and you can share up to three posts every week.

Please can you help me achieve my goal of 100 posts shared with the hop every week by September?  I really appreciate all of last weeks tweets and shares!

I’ve been thinking a lot about balance recently – and the fact that there tends to be a lack of it in so many of our lives.

In Taking Time Out, I share ways to help you take time out and discuss how it can benefit your body, mind, soul, and to do list!

One way I take time out? Baking tried and true family recipes!

I’ve been making these Old-Fashioned Chocolate Chip Cookies for over 30 years. They are (in the words of my long-time friend Yvonne) ‘foolproof’. They are also very delicious!

Did you know you can visit The Real Downton Abbey? Highclere Castle is only a few miles from my home and it’s beautiful inside and out. Join me for an armchair tour!

Thank you to everyone who visited and shared last week. Here are this week’s featured posts:-
