Karins Kottage Linky Party- Recipes and a spring refresh

Welcome my friends to another linky party. This week I am highlighting some amazing recipes and a spring refresh. Not one but two asparagus recipes one of which I have already tried! The grilled asparagus in foil packets is so good! I am always looking for fun porch spring refresh ideas and this one will not disappoint.

Karins Kottage Linky Party- Recipes and a spring refresh

Highlights of the linky party

How about this gorgeous looking roasted asparagus soup! The color is just so pretty. I love what The copper table said- “I think the best thing about this soup is how much flavor you can get out of so few ingredients. It’s light without leaving you hungry, but hearty without being heavy”. 

The guy who grills shares this easy but perfect way to grill asparagus. I tried it the other night and the asparagus turned out perfect! I didn’t use the cheese because one of my daughters is vegan but they still were perfectly cooked.

Puff pastry is my all time favorite thing to use when I make desserts. When I saw this spring puff pastry with nutella I was oh man! I have to make this! I love that she used a tulip cookie cutter and then created a ring with them. So so cute.

These ideas are so fun to use to refresh a porch. The idea of using an old wicker chair that she has had since her first apartment on the porch is just so cute. An organized season always has such great ideas.

Karins Kottage Happenings

I have been sick with a nasty head cold that moved to my chest so I haven’t really been too busy the last few days. My sewing machine is calling me as is my garden. I did make our favorite family taco chicken soup with leftover chicken. It is always so comforting and flavorful! YUM!

Mother’s day is coming and I actually will be back in Italy. Here are a few ideas for a pretty Mother’s day tablescape. My favorite is this ooastal grandmother tablescape. Lots of roses, black and white polka dotted plates and lacy placemats.

This is another pretty and super easy tablesacape to do for Mother’s day. Little vases with a mix of flowers from the grocery store.

    That grilled asparagus caught my eye last week too! My middle son loves nutella so we’ll have to give those nutella pastries a try.

    Hi Karin, first I want to thank you for having my tulip wreath with puff pastry on your favorite post. I also love everything with puff pastry ♥ I read that you were sick, I’m very happy to feel better. I was also very sick a few weeks ago with the flu. Have a good night and see you next time. I will follow your blog ☻
