My friend Melanie, from Melanie Makes has been chosen as one of the finalists in the Better Homes and Gardens Blogger Awards. It would be fantastic if you would go and cast a vote for her in the Family/Everyday Eats category. Melanie’s recipes have shown up quite a few times in my How Fun! menus.

I found out what cookie brittle was from Alison at Nancherrow. Oh my goodness! My jeans did not need this recipe! (Psst! She has a Friday link-up party, too.)

You wouldn’t know it from the few months that I’ve been writing this blog, but most of the time I eat a fairly low-carb or Paleo-type of diet. LINDA’S LOW CARB MENUS & RECIPES site is without a doubt my favorite low-carb recipe site on the internet. I return to it over and over again. Even if you aren’t low carbing, give her taco seasoning a try.

Have a great weekend! Remember Philippians 4:8. “whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”

Thank you so much for mentioning me in this post! 🙂 Your How Fun series is actually what inspired me to do my own weekly meal series.
Dawn,
I love reading through your list every week. I can’t wait to try the pork. Thank you for recommending it!
Oh my gosh, the cookie brittle is certainly LOVELY. So funny as I woke up thinking I want to bake choc. chip cookies today. I may just switch to cookie brittle 🙂 Glad to be here for the linkup!
Thank you so much for linking up again, Joanne. I enjoy your visits 🙂
Oh yes, that cookie brittle is wonderful! It’s dangerously easy to make. lol
I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
I could use some of that homemade chicken noddle soup. Home with the flu. 🙁 But enjoying being lazy. Wising you a wonderful weekend. Thanks for hosting us every Friday.
I am so sorry you are sick, Beth. I would bring you chicken noodle soup if I lived closer. I am glad that you are able to rest.
I hope that you feel restored by the end of the weekend.
Blessings,
Elizabeth
