Please Read & Follow the Rules
Since Simple Lives Thursday is growing, as a group, the five hosts have decided to set some ground rules in order to keep the integrity of the blog hop. Don't stop here... keep reading and find out who the Top Fives are this week!
1. If linking real, traditional and simple recipes, please make sure all ingredients used are whole. Such as whole grains, vegetables, legumes, meats, even sugar. In order to keep the integrity of "nourishing" food, we will delete any recipes that utilize processed, boxed foods. We are definitely not going to be ingredient policeman, however, please note that this is a hop hosted by advocates of the real, local and sustainable food movements.
2. Please link your posts back to one of the hosting blogs. This is a common blog hop courtesy. This link helps build the Simple Lives Thursday community by sending your readers to all of the other participants posts. We all end up sharing and learning from each other.
Top Five Featured Posts!
We really enjoyed going through last week's SLT submitted posts and look forward to doing this every week. Hope you will enjoy the top five picks just as much as we did! Thank you everybody for the awesome submissions... the posts that caught our attentions last week are:
1. Cheddar Cheese in a Homemade Cheese Press by Prairie Sunrise. We admire Marg's resourcefulness in building her own cheese press and embarking on the cheese making journey.
2. Our Summer Manifesto: Learn to Live Without Grid Electricity by Nourishing Days. Shannon's family will be living off-grid and without running water before too long. To prepare, they're making the adjustment before leaving their current home. This is a journey we look forward to watching and learning from!
3. Understanding Your Soil with Weed Indicators by the Des Moines Frugal Family Examiner. An astounding amount of food planted for ornamental reasons goes to waste every year. Gleaning helps line your pantry and solves mess and pest problems associated with unharvested fruit.
4. Homemade "Magic" Shell by The Purposed Heart. This looks like a nourishing treat for a hot summer's day!
5. Which Saves the Most Money –- Dehydrating, Freezing or Canning? by Whole New Mom. This comparison of preserving methods is very informative and will help anyone sort through the cost benefits of different food preservation and storage methods.
Woohoo! Congrats to those five! So, today is Simple Lives Thursday... A fun blog hop dedicated to anything and everything about simple living. Please share with us how are you living your life simply... we all want to know!
There is so much to learn about living simply these days... making lacto-ferments, raising animals, living off-grid, cooking with real food, gardening, raising family, homeschooling, homemade body products, natural cleaners, frugal ways, creating art with recycled materials, homesteading, homeopathy, growing herbs for health and much more!
