Well- let’s see what ya got folks!

Thanks so much for the party and the opportunity to share this week!
I’m excited to see my post is being featured this week, but there’s a typo in your title. It’s supposed to read: Summer Cooking – Keeping Your COOL In The Kitchen. You’ve written it “…Keeping Your Cook In The Kitchen”. Doubly ironic since many of the ideas in this post puts cooking heat outside and the cook isn’t cooped in the kitchen at all. LOL. Anyway, this week I’m sharing: A Super-Easy Trick For Peeling Boiled Eggs; Week 2 Of A Month-Long No-Sugar Challenge; Making Your Own Tomato Powder; Preserving The Harvest – Thyme.
Love the hop, thanks for hosting.
