Karins Kottage Linky Party- Looks like summer

Hi friends welcome to my weekly linky party where I highlight 4 bloggers each week. This weeks highlights looks like summer with highlights about how to celebrate National bee day, Cherry smoothie recipe, Easy lemone meringue pie cookies and a stroll through an herb garden. Come along as i share these ideas and make sure to link up at the bottom.

Looks Like Summer Highlights

I didn’t know about National Bee day but this tablescape created by Masterpieces of my life makes me want to celebrate. I love all her bee themed pieces that she has. Not only does she set a beautiful table but she also has some scrumptious recipes using honey, a darling bee themed floral cone DIY and why this national bee day is important

Crytstal and Comp is sharing is stunning looking cherry smoothie bowl recipe. Crystal says- “Not only is this recipe easy to make, but it’s also packed with essential nutrients and mouth-watering flavor. Loaded with fresh cherries, this smoothie bowl is a perfect way to kick-start your day or indulge in a refreshing snack.”

How about these lemon meringue pie cookies! Wow they look so good. Ann from Anns Entitled Life says- “they are crisp, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread cookies topped with tart and smooth lemon curd and a light and airy meringue.” These cookies are packed with lemon flavor” Is your mouth watering yet? Mine is!!

Thrifting Wonderland has the most amazing herb garden! I love how you can meander through her garden and see the herbs in all different places. “in the heart of the herb garden, a charming cobblestone path winds its way around the central bed, dividing it into neat pie-shaped sections. “Each section is home to a delightful array of aromatic herbs and colorful flowers, peacefully coexisting in their designated spaces.”

Doesn’t that sound so romantic!

Karins Kottage Happenings

We are still traveling through Italy right now. It has been so wonderful to be here this time of year! The weather has been amazing too. We thought we were going to have a lot of rain and so far we have had none! it is always so fun to do a bike ride by the sea and eat lunch on a trabocco.

Dining Alfresco in our friends backyard with friends new and old and from different countries.

Checking in on our Palazzo renovation. We have a long way to go but it is going to be stunning when it’s done!

For our last few nights we are in Puglia Italy. So many charming beach towns to explore.

Hopefully I will have time to write about our adventures soon. Until then enjoy the party!

Ciao my friends :). Oh and don’t forget to pop over to my instagram where I post daily while we are here in Italy.

    I love your photos of Italy! We were supposed to b traveling in Italy this summer, but I have a nagging foot injury that would not make it fun for me to be traveling. But I cannot wait.

      Angie I am so sorry you are having a foot issue 🙁 Hopefully it will heal quickly so you can get over to Italy. You definitely need to have your feet in good order to walk a lot. Get some good shoes for sure. Thanks for stopping by.

    Seeing your pictures of Italy makes me want to return and wander Italian streets again soon. I’m learning Italian so that the next time I’m there I will be able to have a conversation in Italian with a local. Thanks so much for sharing your adventures. I really appreciate the feature for “The Herb Garden”. It’s definitely a labor of love for me with so many lovely moments spent tending the garden. Have a wonderful week.
