Sharing ~ August

Hi everyone! :) This week's post is a compilation of some of my favorite recipes, blogs, books, and other fun stuff! After all, I can't keep good things to myself :)

So... here we go!

Please note as well, I cannot vouch for the content of any other page on these websites except for the links that I share with you.

Recipes and Food Blogs
I do a lot of experimenting in the kitchen. Our family is 2/3 gluten-free, so most recipes need to meet that requirement, or I will substitute certain ingredients.

Some of my favorite recipes (one for each course, of course!) 

• Breakfast: Pannukakku, a.k.a. Finnish Pancake: recipe here
• Lunch: Salmon Patties: recipe here
• Bread: Clever Cornmeal Buns: recipe here
• Dinner: Sweet Potato Bisque: recipe here
• Dessert: Chai Gingerbread Bars: recipe here

Blogs (not necessarily gluten-free):

• Buttered Side Up, by Erica
• Chocolate Covered Katie, by Katie (best cookie dough dip/dessert hummus EVER. Try it!)
• Gluten Free on a Shoestring, by Nicole

Music:

• The Piano Guys: A pianist/cellist team that creates gorgeous music videos!
• John Kraemer: A friend of mine! He composes beautiful, original piano pieces. Here is a sample of his work.

• Jason Gray: A Christian artist, who writes thought-provoking lyrics to accompany his fun, uplifting music.

Books and/or Authors:

• The Lost Art of True Beauty by Leslie Ludy - a thought provoking, convicting and encouraging read for young ladies. Please read with discretion: I do not fully agree with some of her theological views. (for ages 17 and up)
• The Hidden Art of Homemaking by Edith Schaeffer (wife of Francis Schaeffer) - need some inspiration for how to make your home a more beautiful and biblical place? This is an excellent read. (for ages 17 and up)
• The Hidden Hand by E.D.E.N. Southworth - a hilarious and wonderful book full of plot twists and adventure! (for ages 14 and up)

That's all for now. I hope to post a collection like this once every other month. That will give me time to collect more fun things to share!

Until next time!
