Hi there! Welcome to The Hearth and Soul Link Party! This week I am featuring Spring Crafts and Recipes to inspire you!
How are things going with you? My husband and I spent some time exploring Half Moon Bay this weekend. What a gorgeous part of the world!
Last week I shared one of my late Mom’s recipes – and a bit of family history as well.
Don’t miss these wonderfully wholesome Old Fashioned Oatmeal Raisin Muffins – definitely a recipe with a story behind it!

Hi April,
Your Oatmeal Raisin Muffins look delicious! It is all about the Irish at the cottage this week. I am sharing my Grandma’s Dublin Coddle along with my Herb Skillet Bread and of course the Irish Meal Plan for the week. Hope you have a great St. Patrick’s Day and thanks so much for the party!

Hi april,

You are so welcome, Nancy! I hope you enjoy the muffins 🙂 Have a lovely week!
April, thank you SO much for selecting our post about colorful home decor as one of your weekly features! We truly appreciate your support!!
It’s a pleasure, Emily 🙂 I really enjoyed your post!
That magazine art is such a fun idea! I seriously love it. I’ve always enjoyed collages and doing different color themes for rooms would be so enjoyable.
This week I’ve linked up my gluten-free Spiced Party Meatballs, which are great for any celebration, and my Flourless Chocolate Banana Walnut Honey Cake, which is perfect for Passover.
Have a great week and Happy St. Patrick’s Day, April!
Shirley
I agree, Shirley, collages really are fun and so pretty too! Your recipes sound wonderful – I look forward to them! I hope your week is wonderful too, and Happy St Patrick’s Day!
Thanks so much for featuring my magazine art idea, It was such an easy, cheap and fun project to do.
Have a lovely week, thank you for hosting the link up.
It’s a pleasure, Julie! I really enjoyed your post! I hope your week is lovely too 🙂
Thank you for hosting such a fun party each week. I think parties are the best social media strategy around!! I linked my cheesy Potatoes, Baileys Irish Cream Cheesecake, and a Collection of Irish foods, Just in time for St Patrick’s Day. I hope you enjoy them.

OMG! Where did you get that heart shaped slate?!!! I NEED one!!!!
I’m so glad you like it, Robin! It was a gift so I’m not exactly sure where it came from, but I hope you are able to find one like it. I use it so often!
April, I loved going to the article and reading about your mother. What a special lady! I am blessed to have my mom still with us. Today, Monday, is her 95th birthday and she is still going strong. I still use many of her old favorite recipes. Best wishes as you complete your cookbook.
I love the pictures from Half Moon Bay. You and your husband are adorable. Thanks for hosting!
Thank you so much, Helen! I’m so glad you enjoyed the post, and thank you for the compliments! Happy Birthday to your Mom! It’s wonderful she is doing so well at such a great age. You are very blessed indeed 🙂 Thank you for visiting and sharing, and for all your support!
