Who’s frantically finishing costumes? Or maybe coating apples with caramel? Maybe a hayride or quiet evening at home in front of the fire is more your speed. Whatever your plans for the day and the weekend, I hope you’ll find encouragement here at our weekly Encouraging Hearts & Home blog hop! Love Deeply was last week’s most-viewed post, an excellent article!
Today I’m featuring:
- Purple Crochet Baby Blanket because I’m gearing up for cold-weather crafting ideas (no new grandbabies are expected at this point, but I can always plan ahead!)
- Hands Down The Best Cake Filling recipe because my daughter and I love finding new
excusesreasons to whip up yumminess in the kitchen! - Easy Leaf Napkin Fold for Fall or Thanksgiving because I was still looking for an idea for this year’s name plates at our Thanksgiving dinner table.
And Now, for This Week’s Encouraging Hearts & Home Blog Hop!

Thank you for hosting! I’m in the garden this week with #17, Cover Crops – The Best Green Manure For Your Garden. Happy Halloween…quiet is our speed 🙂
Thanks so much for hosting!
Thank you for hosting! This is what I featured the week of 10-21 to 10-25 on my blog. On Tuesday morning was a Smores Milkshake. Wednesday I posted an Insane Zany Brownie Brookie. Wrapping up this week of pre-Halloween treats I highlighted a Cheesecake Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar. Enjoy!
Thanks again for another “Encouraging Hearts” party. I added links which I think will go along with your theme. I made a Log Angel which is very easy to make and the main piece is a fireplace log!! Got lots of those! Ha ha Best wishes, Linda @Crafts a la mode
