Sweet Thursday: Family Favorites Edition

Welcome to another edition of Sweet Thursday, my monthly dessert round-up. I hope you enjoy all of this month’s entries! If you’d like to be a part of this round-up, just send an email to me at simplysweethome@hotmail.com and I’ll add your recipe to the post.

Next Round-up: My Next Round-up will be posted on December 24. That’s right–Christmas Eve! I was going to post it a week earlier, but I don’t want it to conflict with the Holly Bloggy Christmas Bash, which will include a recipe link-up. Anyway the theme for the next round-up will be Christmas/Holiday Desserts. I’ll most likely post the round-up late on Wednesday night (the 23rd) so please get your submissions in by then. Just email me a picture and a link to your recipe post. Thanks!

Sweet Thursday: St. Patrick’s Day Edition


I had a couple of things lined up for this month’s post, and they seem to have disappeared, and so I scrambled around the internet at the last minute to find some cute things to share with you.

And on Monday, I’m planning on sharing something that I made today, which would be perfect for St. Patrick’s Day or any spring/summer occasion.

Also, next month I’ll be featuring desserts for Easter and Spring. If you’d like to have your dessert featured here, just send an email to simplysweethome@hotmail.com.

I’ll be doing the post on April 9 (the Thursday before Easter), so please send in your stuff before then. For more information on Sweet Thursday, click here.

Sweet Thursday: Happy Valentine’s Day


Today we have a great collection of Valentine Sweets from our fellow blogger friends. These will definitely make your mouth water!

Thanks again to everyone who submitted or gave permission to use their stuff!

As for next month’s round-up, I have had the most difficult time deciding on a theme and corresponding date. Finally I decided on two themes: St. Patrick’s Day & Mardi Gras. And the due date to send in your goodies will be March 11. This date will be a little early for St. Patrick’s Day and a little late for Mardi Gras, but hopefully they can meet in the middle, and we get at least a handful of delicious treats.
