It's been a long week! The van broke down (kinda) and we were told it was a $2000 repair. Honestly, I don't believe them. I wish we had a mechanic we could trust. Auto Zone said it was a $9 repair so that is the one we did, LOL. I HATE cars!!! We got some surprise rain again last week. What an odd fall season! I (sadly) do not have a fall garden because we will be gone for part of it so I have to wait until next season.
I keep finding free Amazon books and posting them to my facebook page. They are not coming as fast as last week (I think it was the start of the fall season that made the publishers give those instant discounts on the garden and homestead books), but they are still coming. With the Christmas season coming up quick we should start seeing more deals out there!
I am going to be participating in an online Cookie party next month so stay tuned! There will be a cash giveaway (it's at $300 right now) and a bunch of other goodies. If you celebrate Halloween don’t forget to stop by my Halloween Pinterest page! There are lots of family-friendly ideas for the holiday.
There were 96 submissions last week (are you guys preparing for Christmas already!). Let's hit 100 this week! I don't think we have been under 100 for a long time. The submitted posts were wonderful though – so great job!
In leu of the upcoming cookie party, this week I am featuring Homesteading on Grace and her recipe for Oatmeal Honey Cookies. Granted cookies are not really healthy, but these come as close as you can get!
Now for this weeks submissions! The linky for this weeks submissions is below. If you need a refresher on the rules for the hop then head on over to my Homesteading HomeAcre Blog Hop page. The one that seems to be missed most often is to make sure to feature the button from the hop on your page (or link back to it in the post you submit)! The button is in the footer of my page. Without that, I cannot feature you. Most weeks I try to feature somebody who has forgotten that so I choose another.
