The Creative HomeAcre Hop #8
Let’s Get Creative!
Red is my favorite color!
Welcome to the eighth edition of The Creative HomeAcre Hop, where you’ll find your creative outlet for the week! It’s hard to believe Easter is almost here. Our weather is warming up into the 30s this week. It’s hard to get excited about that, but after a week in the 20s I’ll take any warming trend I can get.
I love the deep blue of this orchid.
My poor little daffodil greens aren’t very green anymore. They have been frozen repeatedly and are now a sickly yellow color. I’m sure they’ll survive, but it will be awhile before I can snap any photos of the pretty flowers. So once again I’ll make do with some pics of tropical flowers that warm my heart and give me hope for the coming spring weather!
The delicate streaks of purple in this orchid remind me of a watercolor painting.
I hope you are all warm and toasty in your spring surroundings! I can’t wait to see what you share with us this week!
Farm to Table Through the Year
Have you checked out the new e-book Farm to Table Through the Year? There are chapters on farm fresh foods throughout the year and how to prepare them. I’m honored to be included in such a great group of writers!
Last Chance For Our Heirloom Seed Giveaway!
Our heirloom seed giveaway from Mary’s Heirloom Seeds ends this Wednesday evening. Be sure to stop by and enter before it’s too late! My co-host for The HomeAcre Hop, Jenny from Black Fox Homestead, will also have the giveaway listed on her page.
The Linky Love Party!
Have you shared a link to your blog hop or carnival on The Linky Love Party yet? I created this linky party so hosts will have a linky especially for promoting their party! What’s that? you don’t host a party? Well, stop by The Linky Love Party to check out all of the awesome hops that you can join each week! You can also grab the code for the party or for the button to place on your blog for a quick way to visit the party for hops to join each week. How cool is that?!
