Welcome to the Hearth and Soul Hop, the blog hop where you can share and find inspiration for food from the hearth to feed your soul. We have some exciting news – from next week two new bloggers will be joining us as hosts! Please join us in welcoming Elsa of Elsa Cooks and Judy of Savoring Today.

Elsa is a wife, mommy, part-time worker/stay-at-home mama, and homeschooler. Other than her family, her passion in life is cooking, and recently, food photography. Her main blog, Elsa Cooks, focuses on cooking and baking from scratch. Her second blog, Elsa’s Baby Talk, focuses on family life. You can connect with  Elsa on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.

Judy is a writer and home cook with a passion for good food and healthy living. She believes great food goes beyond flavor or nourishment—it fosters relationship, beginning with her own family. She shares her love of food and prize-winning recipes through her blog, Savoring Today, as well as contributing to the Fresh Ink section of her local newspaper. You can connect with Judy onFacebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.

A warm welcome to both Elsa and Judy!

We would also like to take this opportunity to restate the rules of the Hearth and Soul Hop, and we ask that you please read them carefully.

Recipes should include healthy ingredients and can be old or new recipes or posts. Articles on real food, slow food, foraging, herbal remedies, local food, sustainable food, organics, gardening or any healthy eating information written in a positive and loving light are also welcome.

All the hosts at Hearth and Soul care very deeply about this blog hop, and make an group effort to be sure that every post is commented on. We also Pin and Tweet many of the entries. You don’t find this with every blog hop, and in exchange for our efforts, we respectfully request that you include a link in the actual blog post you are sharing back to one of the hosts, either by worded link or using our badge. It is not enough to link using a communal blog party page. People rarely click on these links and it is unlikely they will find the Hearth and Soul hop using these sort of pages.

Okay, let’s get on with this week’s Hearth and Soul Hop!

We share links to posts that have been shared with Hearth and Soul Hop at our Hearth and Soul Facebook Page, on our Pinterest Boards, and on Twitter.

Please share your recipes using the linky tools below. Please link a post that closely fits into the mission. Please include a link back to any of the host sites (through worded link or badge) actually in your individual post. If you link an archived post, please update it to include a link back to one of the Hearth and Soul hosts.

The Hearth and Soul Hop hosts include:

Alea of Premeditated Leftovers

Swathi of Zesty South Indian Kitchen

Penny of Penniless Parenting

and me, April of The 21st Century Housewife

The linky will stay open from 4:00 am Tuesday to 11:59 pm Thursday Eastern Standard Time.

Please share the Hearth and Soul Badge below to help promote the blog hop.

Instagram post 2198291751764787100_179821897 🌟 Christmas isn't just one day 🌟There's so much focus on the 25th of December and, as a Christian, it's very important to me. Having said that, it's hard to be in more than one place at a time, so I like to enjoy lots of Christmases, from mid-December all the way through the New Year. Early Christmas with @guyjharris66 side of the family last night meant lots of laughs, a great catch up and some delicious food. The menu may have been non-traditional but it was huge fun nonetheless!

Instagram post 2196647699462172646_179821897 🎄Have you finished your Christmas decorating? 🎄Or is it still a work in progress?I’m taking my time this year, and it has been such fun! My Christmas tree went up very early, but the rest of the decorations have been evolving over the past few weeks.
I think removing the pressure to get everything up and ready in just one day has really enhanced my enjoyment of the festive season.
What about you - are you a get it all done kind of person, or does your holiday decor evolve over the weeks before the big day?#apriljharris #the21stcenturyhousewife #holidaydecor #mystylephotochallenge #red #littlestoriesofmylife #decoratingstyle #shinyhappybloggers #christmastree #christmasdecor #gettingreadyforchristmas #holidayseason
Instagram post 2196024479264347171_179821897 🌟 Sparkle and shine 🌟My talented friend @slkw73 put together this sweet frugal coffee table decoration for me. We used a glass dish that belonged to my late Mom via my late Grandma. The string of pine cones  with tiny lights (that don't show up in the photo!) was purchased from @greenparlour and the pretty berry garland from @kikiandbow. Love being able to use vintage sentimental treasures like this!

Instagram post 2194404729956828073_179821897 🌟The 80/20 Rule 🌟Do you follow this simple rule? Eighty percent of the time I eat healthily, exercise and do all the healthy things. Twenty percent of the time I let myself go a little. So this morning we wrapped up warm and got out for a brisk walk (before the rain!) to make up for a tiny bit of over-indulgence celebrating with friends last night. Okay...maybe a lot of indulgence...🍾🍷🍷🍷🍾We did skip dessert though! 😉#apriljharris #the21stcenturyhousewife #wrapupwarm #mystylephotochallenge #healthyliving #getoutside #8020rule #healthylifestyle #walking #balancedlife
