A very warm welcome to our Hearth and Soul Hop Link Party! We invite you to share all family-friendly posts as well as, of course, food from the hearth to feed your soul.
This week my husband and I celebrate of our 25th wedding anniversary and it’s my husband’s birthday, both on Wednesday. My husband is working on the day but we’ll be celebrating at a dinner with our son in the evening. We are still in California and on Thursday we’ll be attending a San Jose Sharks hockey game which I’m very excited about. Being Canadian (as well as British) I love a good hockey game!
Come Saturday when our son heads home my hubby and I are flying up to Vancouver for a short anniversary break. I’m super excited to a) have a break where my husband is actually on holiday and b) visit Vancouver for the very first time!

March 7, 2016 at 6:29 pmCongratulations on all, April! You are living life right, my friend! You’re making so many special memories while celebrating previous life events. 🙂 Vancouver is on my list so I’ll eagerly await the info you share on your visit!
This week I’ve linked up over 25 amazing gluten-free hot cross bun recipes and some fantastic blueberry muffins. The latter is a recipe from my previous March Muffin Madness event. This year’s event will kick off on Sunday–woohoo!
Have a fabulous “on travel” week!

March 10, 2016 at 1:31 pmThanks so much for the party April. I didn’t make it last week. I was snowed under (not literally – still sweltering here in Australia). Congratulations on your anniversary! I hope you’re enjoying your vacation. Best wishes always,
Anne @ Domesblissity xx
