Thanks for hosting another wonderful party April! Your Apricot Pecan Bread looks amazing!

My pleasure, Nancy 🙂 Thank you for visiting and for the compliment!
The apricot pecan quick bread looks delicious! I’m going to have to try that, especially as the name sounds like it will be an easy bake 🙂 Thanks for hosting!

Thank you, Natalie, it really is an easy bake! Thank you for visiting and sharing 🙂
Hi April,
Thanks so much for featuring my Strawberry Banana Bars, I sure hope you enjoy them. Have a great week and thanks so much for the party!
Miz Helen
Hi Miz Helen, It’s my pleasure! I’m excited to try them. Hope you have a good week too 🙂
Your bread looks amazing! And look at all the strawberry treats! This week I’ve linked up 150 favorite brunch recipes (originally shared for Mother’s Day, but they work for any brunch–graduations, weddings, anniversaries, etc.) and while that sounds intimidating, 100 of those are brunch-worthy bread recipes via two roundups. Last, I’ve linked up my homemade Poppy Seed Salad Dressing, which is really easy to make and so tasty!
Belated Happy Mother’s Day! Thanks so much for hosting and have a great week. 🙂
Shirley
Happy Belated Mother’s Day to you too, Shirley! I’m excited about both your posts. Brunch is becoming so much more popular here in the UK, I’m always on the lookout for new recipes and I love poppy seed anything!
Thank you for featuring my post about King’s Day!!
My pleasure, Liz. Thank you so much for sharing it!

Hi April, I have added vegan meringue this week. Thanks for the party dear.
Hi Sadhna! Vegan meringue sounds so interesting! I’m excited to learn more. Thank you for visiting and sharing 🙂

Hi Sherry! Thank you for visiting and sharing. I will hopefully pop by Funtastic Friday this week. It’s a great party!
Hi April ,
Your recipes look delicious ! I can’t wait to try the bourbon chutney , I’ve developed a real love for it on all my trips to England and always bring some back to Canada with me . ( Speaking of England , I’m listening to my classical radio station and they’re playing the theme song to ” Downton Abbey , love that show !) I’m having problems with my computer , I haven’t been able to access my email or Facebook for a few weeks now so I can only look at Facebook not make any comments . Such a pain , I’m trying to figure it out . Have a great week ! Ruby .
Thank you so much, Ruby 🙂 I’m sorry to hear about your computer. That is a pain – it sounds really odd as well. If it was just Facebook I might say there was something weird going on with your account but if it’s the email too, that doesn’t make sense. I’m sorry I can’t be more help. It’s lovely of you to comment here though – I love getting comments on my posts! Hope you have a great week too 🙂 x
Thanks for the party April. Hope you’ve been having a good week.
Anne xx
Thank you for visiting and sharing, Anne. The week seems to have flown by but it has been good so far. Hope it’s a good one for you too!
April, thank you so much for hosting. You and Swathi do an amazing job. Your apricot pecan loaf looks like something I need to put at the top of my must-make list!
Thank you so much, Jean. Both Swathi and I really appreciate your support!
