Karins Kottage Linky Party

Karins Kottage Linky Party- Fun Drinks and dessert

Welcome my linky party friends! Love having you come to Karins Kottage Linky party each week. This week I am sharing some really fun cool and refreshing non alcoholic drinks and a beautiful icebox dessert.

Just looking at these photos makes you feel like summer has arrived. Great job ladies in making all our mouths water just by looking at your beautiful pictures. So let’s get to it.

Karins Kottage fun drinks and dessert highlights

So many bright colorful cool and refreshing drinks that are perfect for summer!

Flour on my face has a fabulous watermelon lemonade thyme drink recipe that is a must try! Fresh herbs really give lemonade.

I love using fresh herbs and fruit in my lemonades. I made a few different ones that you can see here.

How about this refreshing melon ball punch recipe! Must Have Mom makes this really fun drink with sparkling white grape juice, lemonade and lime soda. Then she adds some melon balls to the mix. YUMMMERZ!

My grandkids are going to flip over these Easy Sonic slushie recipes from Mommy Hates Cooking! I love that she used Kool-aid for color and flavoring. Brings back memories of being a kid!

Now this is what i would call a fun drink!

What the Fork Blog is sharing this beautiful gluten free Strawberry Icebox cake. She uses gluten free crackers and her white chocolate ganache whipped cream instead of regular whipped cream. Wow it looks amazing!

Karins Kottage Happenings in Italy

I am on my way home from Italy as I write this. It was another amazing trip and I have so much to share as always. Hopefully I will have some time to write about it this week. You can see some of my videos on Instagram.

We had a great bike ride all along the Adriatic sea. We rode for 25 miles! It was a spectacular day with perfect temps.

The food never disappoints wherever we go in Italy. Casoli has a restaurant called Fiori’s and the chef is amazing! So many delicious appetizers like this one.

Spring is in full bloom all over Abruzzo area. Wild flowers were a plenty.

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
