My Favorite Linky Parties {31 Days of my favorite links}

If you are a blogger, you know that one great way to attract new readers to your blog is through linking and sharing your posts at various link parties around the blogosphere.    Have you ever looked at your stats to see which parties are generating the most traffic to your site? Even if you are not a blogger, I encourage you to stop over at these blogs to find all kinds of inspiration.  You might find a new blog to follow more regularly.


I have and today I am going to share with you the top three link parties that I like to join so  maybe you can join in too!  Linking up at these parties has created virtual friendships with both the hostess and many of the other regular posters at the parties.


My favorite parties are ones that are wide open and allow all sorts of topics to be shared.  That makes it easy to join in the fun and extra interesting to read the wide variety of what interests other people.




1.round button chicken  Every Thursday Leila and her daughter Rosie from Like Mother Like Daughter (a fabulous Catholic blog full of the wisdom of an experienced mother and a younger daughter) hosts Pretty, Happy, Funny, Real.   Simply find four photos, one for each category, and share a little about each photo.  Here is an example of one of my own PHFR posts ~Amish Country Version.
  


2. Weekend Bloggy Reading   Amanda at Serenity Now  hosts two great link-ups.  Weekend Bloggy Reading begins on Fridays and continues all weekend.  She welcomes any posts related to crafts, recipes, home decor, book reviews and more.  Amanda does a great job of choosing individual posts to highlight on her blog throughout the weekend.  Her whole blog is is a fun site to peruse.




3.Sisters Heather and Vanessa host a fantastic party at their site called At The Pickett Fence.  For Inspiration Friday they invite you to share "what inspired you this week" and they always select a few posts to feature prominently on their blog.  I think you'll love their entire blog.

Locally Grown {stuffed green peppers recipe}

  Last weekend we took the whole family to a nearby produce stand.  We were craving something that tasted fresh from the garden and since I don't have my own garden, we found this place.     The fields were full of fall-colored flowered.  Can't wait for those cooler days to come.         But for now, we are reveling in the height of summer sunshine and produce.       It's easy to go overboard here and buy much more than you can use in the next few days.  I don't even like okra but they look so inviting in those cute blue crates.     These tomatoes inspired a caprese salad for lunch: tomato slices cut into quarters, hunks of fresh mozzarella, snipped basil leaves, salt, pepper and drizzles of olive oil and red wine vinegar.       These strawberries wound up being dunked in Silky Chocolate Fondue .       Every girl dreams of doing her shopping with one of these adorable woven baskets, doesn't she?       Even the boys had fun playing in the sand while I took m

Savoring Summer {Staying in the Season}

The desk full of binders, calendars, sports schedules and dreamy ideas is where I currently find myself, while my mind continues to stray back to the mountains and clouds of our trip to the Black Hills of South Dakota. We have been home for a week and I decided in future, I must come home better mentally prepared for the onslaught of emails and to-do items that pile up when we go away for two whole weeks. The fact that school resumes one week from today only intensifies the pressure to get it all done right away. Usually at this point in August I am eager for cooler, less humid days hinting at the beauty of spicy Autumn flavors. Not this year. I am so invigorated by my return to normal movement following the long recovery from knee surgery that I don't want these summery days to end. At least not until they officially end on September 23, 2014. This year feels like a do-over, the last one so consumed by injury, pain and slow, slow, slow recovery. My mind is bursti

Petals :: 52 Photos Project

Where I live the Bradford Pears have bloomed and blown and the Cherry Blossoms are in full blossom.  Even though that means our allergy season is now officially underway, I cannot help opening our windows every morning in hopes of hearing the birds singing to greet the day.  Springtime has conveniently coincided with my personal recovery process from knee surgery.  As I am slowly re-gaining mobility on crutches it seems an added encouragement that the weather is also improving and the trees are welcoming my return with their flowers. What a treat it would be to be able to put down my crutches in time for Easter Sunday and walk again on my own! (I am doubtful but one can hope.) Sharing with 52 Photos Project :: Petals
