It is time once again for Karins Kottage Linky party #252! What amazing things am I highlighting today you may be asking? Well let me tell you! Some yummy asparagus fries, A beautiful New Years Eve Brunch that would fabulous any time of year. Great tips on how to make the most of a small closet and a gorgeous WInter tour of Woodstock, Vermont.
Don’t you love asparagus?
I absolutely love it and now you can make them like fries!
Homemade on a weeknight makes them with Panko bread crumbs and roasts them in the oven. YUM!
Virginia Sweet Pea shared her Christmas trip to Woodstock Virginia and it just looks magical. I need to plan a trip to visit Virginia.
The charming houses all decked out for Christmas looks like a Currier and Ives painting!
I am always looking for great tips and tricks on how to use my closet space better.
My wee abode lives in a small space and has figured out fabulous ways to maximize her closets and other areas of her home.
I love these blue boxes with lids that she uses to hold everything from small gifts to craft items.
I am a sucker for a pretty tablescape, centerpiece etc. My Hubbard home put together this pretty New Years Eve Brunch and I love how she used real greenery and little pinecones for the centerpiece.
Plus she also used thrifted items, transferware plates and candles.
It just says enjoy and stay awhile.
I have been busy cleaning out closets, drawers etc. It is always amazing how much stiff I accumulate! Sheesh!
I also need to tackle my craft room (once again).
This is what it looked like when I had the craft room all nice and organized and cleaned up.
It does not look like this right now 🙁
This year I am going to really try to only keep things that I really love.
I just don’t want to “store” so many things that I might use one day. I want to use the things I have instead of just admiring them when I look in my closet or drawer.
Anyone else doing this?
Later this month I am hosting my niece’s bridal shower! I am making some fun plans for it.
Remember my daughters peach and navy bridal shower? I made this huge naked banana cake with fresh flowers and it was so yummy!
For my niece I am having Paige my other niece who just started her baking company make the cake. Paige is super talented! Give her a follow on Instagram. It is so fun to have so much family help out!
I am going to decorate with fresh greens, white roses, candles and a charcuterie board.
This time I am going more natural and simple 🙂

Hi Karin, Happy New Year and thank you for hosting! That cake is amazing! Good luck with your craft room, I need to do some organizing and purging in my art studio, so you have reminded me to get busy! I love asparagus too, such a versatile vegetable, and those asparagus Parmesan fries look great, yum. Have a great week!
