Time to Party!
New year, new month, new party! That's right, its time for our new Country Fair Blog Party. This month the theme is Holiday Treasure Hunt. If you are like me the holidays are a crazy time. It's almost like a marathon of gatherings. So hunt through the archives and share with us what you have been up to! Perhaps it is your favorite recipe from the holidays or even a project you made or received. Whatever it is we want to see it!

December CFBP.......Baby It's Cold Outside
So while this may be the theme of this months blog party link up, I must admit that it has been pretty mild in these parts lately. I even heard it may reach close to 50 degrees this coming week. For December in Ohio that is pretty rare. Last year I'm pretty sure we were under a ridiculous amount of snow. If you can tell I'm not complaining in the slightest. I will take 50 degrees in December any day!
As mentioned at the beginning.......our December blog party link up is "Baby it's Cold Outside". That means share with us anything and everything that reminds you of winter and the holidays. I can't wait to see what everyone has to share since i procrastinate every year when it comes to the holidays and deciding what to buy/make for people and what dish to take to family gatherings. So give me some inspiration friends!
Be sure to check out the other lovely hosts as well!

November is a time to Party!
I mean what month isn't a good time to party in all honesty? Can y'all believe it is November already? This year is flying by! I recently had my 1st annual 29th birthday this month! Woo Hoo for never turning 30 right?! As you can probably already tell, with a new month comes a new blog party theme! This month we are all about the Giving (as you quickly start to sing "all about that bass") I know you did. :)
One of the new additions to the party is we have some new and lovely co-hosts! I will share with you a lil about them for your viewing pleasure!
Nicole shares about her life on a Kansas farm and ranch over at Tales of a Kansas Farm Mom. Her and her husband raise boys, cattle, wheat, corn, grass and soybeans on their family farm. Her days can be unpredictable, sometimes comical, sometimes heart wrenching, but always fulfilling to those who are lucky to be farmers.
Caitlin, of Belongs With Wildflowers, a 20-something living on the East Coast of the United States. After a decade chasing college degrees and career ladders, I began blogging as a creative outlet to reconnect with myself. Blogging pushed me to look at what happiness meant to me (and it was found in the most surprising of places).

One of the new additions to the party is we have some new and lovely co-hosts! I will share with you a lil about them for your viewing pleasure!
Jan, the chick behind Tip Garden, grew up a Kansas farm girl. She now lives in the big city out in the South East. She works 2 jobs outside the home, in addition to her favorite "jobs" of wife and mother! She knows what being a busy woman is, short on time, and always feeling 2 steps behind and she loves time & money saving ideas!
I’m learning about agriculture, beekeeping, chickens, goats, herbalism, and organic farming to begin my farm and homestead in the next year. In the meantime, I spend my days chasing adventures with Michael (lovingly called ‘my guy’ and ‘my beau’),with an awfully adorable fur-little family in tow.
Jamie, of This Uncharted Rhoade, is a Midwestern girl. 25 years old. Married to her best friend. Passionate about agriculture. Has a fantastic job working with animals and amazing, smart people. Fixing up their one bedroom house into a home. Happiest when surrounded by open fields and cows. She's been known exaggerate a little bit and sometimes has potty mouth (sorry mom).
Laurie is a country gal from Missouri. She was born and raised a farm girl and feels very blessed to be back on the family farm with her husband and children. Laurie loves sharing about life on the farm and living in the country as well as her photography. Every day is different on the farm, so you never know what you might see when you visit COUNTRY LINKED.
Danielle was born an Urban Cajun, transformed into a Rural Okie and now blazing through life as a Kentucky Wife. She writes about my life, faith, my fur-child Oliver, over share about the handsome fella I married and mix it all in with some agriculture flavor on the (sometimes hysterical, but always honest) High Heels and Shotgun Shells.
So now that you know all about everyone, go find your favorite post about giving or anything Thanksgiving related and link it up for all the world to see!
Enjoy!

Fall Party Favorites - CFBP
Harvest, cool temps, amazing sunsets, everything pumpkin......that is what fall is to me! We have had some amazing entries for our blog party this month and I can't wait to share with you my favorites! Our theme this month is fall (naturally) so you can imagine that some of the posts contained my favorite things that were mentioned above.
Without further ado......My Favorites!
I love this post because as harvest picks up finding easy meals to take to the field to not only my farmer but to customers that we are taking a plot off or side by side is so helpful! I love quick, easy, and tasty!
Spicy Stuffed Acorn Squash- The Tip Garden
I love acorn squash and I love spicy, so you can imagine this was an easy pick for me! I can't wait to give it a try this week. I actually just picked up an acorn squash at the store yesterday so it was practically meant to be.
This post hits home for sure as i have been up in my deer stand for the past couple weeks since bow season has opened here. We use the meat as a source of food and don't let anyone tell you different, deer is delicious!
Great post!! I love how fall is explained in numbers and the long seasons. My favorite quote from the post: "It takes optimism to begin, persistence to make it past the obstacles and through the inevitable mid season slump and grit to make the necessary adjustments and finish strong. "
I love anything DIY and especially made out of pallets. I seem to have a ton of pallets laying around all the time. If I can put them to good use it is a win for me!!
So their you have it! Those are my 5 favorites from our fall party thus far. Be sure to stop by and check out any new posts and be sure to link up any of your favorites that remind you of fall!
Enjoy

New and Improved Blog Party!
Am i normally late to the party? Yes. However, you know the saying....be fashionably late to make an entrance. I feel that applies perfectly here! If you didn't notice yesterday many of my fellow party hosts shared the new and improved Country Fair Blog Party! If you didn't notice then perfect, you are about to find out now!
Here's the lowdown:
New and Improved: We are now only partying once a month. We used to host a new party once a week but as life gets busy we feel this is a much better fit! I think you will agree.
How it Works: The beginning of every month we will start a new party (or in my case maybe the second day). All ya'll will share your amazing recipes, or DIY ideas, or just some great informational posts. The hosts will then pick their favorites and must sees say around the middle of the month.
Best Part...: We are now themed! Everyone loves a theme right? This month naturally we will be doing fall! I love fall and everything about it. Deer hunting season opens, everything pumpkin flavored hits the shelves, amazing colors of nature, the cooler temps, and of course Halloween! Don't forget the month of October is also National Pork Month! That in itself deserves a party because who doesn't love bacon?!
How to Party Along: Be sure to join in the fun and link up one of your posts that has anything or everything to do with this amazing season of Fall! Just click on the link at the bottom of the page and it will have you put in the URL of your post then you can add a picture if you like. Bodda Bing, Bodda Boom, you are in!
Hosts: Currently their are 4 of us hosting this, Nicole, Danielle, Laurie, and myself. We do love a good party so the more the merrier right? We would love to have some of you also co-host with us! If you are interested in hosting a party with us just shoot one of us a message and we will get you all set up!
Enjoy and happy linking!!
