Little Cottage Link Party #33

Happy New Year, and welcome to Little Cottage Link Party #33! Did everyone have a nice holiday break? I sure did. I had time to read everyone’s “Most Popular Posts of 2019,” and other posts that looked back on the year behind us. I made a Time to Shine New Year’s Vignette, Top Posts from 2019, and Reflections on 2019 post. It was very exciting for me to write those posts, because last year was my first real year of blogging. I had a blog for a few years before that, but posted sparingly, and didn’t own my domain. It’s been a great first year here at the Little Cottage. Thank you so much for joining the party each week!

The Little Cottage Link Party is open from Monday, 9am EST, through Thursday, 9am EST (I’m leaving the party open a day longer this year). My goal for this link party is to help myself and others thrive in the home. I’ve spent the last two decades raising five homeschooled children in a beautiful little cottage in the South Carolina Lowcountry. In my opinion, the home is the most important place on earth. It doesn’t matter if you’re married, single, empty-nesting, or raising a large family-your home can still be a refreshing oasis of love and beauty to those who enter.

Time for the Features!

I’m featuring more posts than usual this time. There were just too many good things to choose from! The first feature is an amazing estate sale find discovered and lovingly repaired by Ann.

You have to read this recipe! These cookies have a melted Peppermint Patty inside! I have a child that loves everything peppermint. I’m definitely making these in the future.

I would love to receive this baking kit as a Christmas gift, wouldn’t you?

I love sweater crafts! I made one last year, and need to revisit that genre. A Norfolk Pine looks so much cozier in a cable knit.

This next feature is an oldie, but a goodie, when it comes to Christmas treats. I’ve only made this recipe few times because I love it so much. I usually end up eating the whole pan.

Debbie had me at Shiny Bright ornaments. I sure wish I could find some vintage Shiny Brites at a thrift store! Debbie has her regular blog, and a Christmas blog.

I couldn’t resist adding Marilyn’s fudge recipe. The more I look at her pictures, the more I want a piece of this amazing-looking fudge.
