Friday Finds April 30, 2021
Welcome to today’s edition. I’m so delighted to have you here. Please look around see what finds appeal to you. I’ve added a table of contents so you can easily find your favorites. Although, I hope you take a peek at them all. If you are only here for recipes, I sometimes have cookbooks in the book section; the same goes for crafts. I like to mix things up to keep the Friday Finds Fresh. ( I also love alliteration!)
The comment contest winner from last week’s Friday Finds is Theresa Boedeker. She will be the featured blogger on my sidebar for the next week. Please visit her lovely site and be sure to tell her you found her here. If you would like to be the author of the week in my BookShop, the featured blogger on my sidebar, or even win a small gift card, please leave a comment on this post. Sharing makes me happy!
Entries for the Book Blogger Novel of the Year Award (BBNYA) have closed. I’ve been selected as a team leader this year. Watch this space for updates!
Let’s get to the Finds now. I’ll be waiting for your comments below!
(ps. Don’t let the contest intimidate you. You don’t have to accept any prize.)

Until the night she meets Rafe Martinelli and decides to change the direction of her life. With her reputation in ruin, there is only one respectable choice: marriage to a man she barely knows.

Love the creative projects Gina. 🙂 🙂
The strawberry lemon bars sound perfect. Your post is as fun and beautiful as ever, I plan to check out the other website’s you listed, Been busy recovering from from major spine surgery, and am playing catch-up trying to write book 4 in my McAllister Brothers series, I hope you are well. I know you are busy too,
Oh my, Cricket. I hope you are doing well. Thank you for your kind comments.

The breakfast sandwiches sound delicious, but I’m thinking of trying them with a few changes. Next time I make my sourdough biscuits, I’ll grab some chives from the planter box outside my kitchen window. Biscuits with chives, spinach, eggs, and cheddar? Fabulous! (I’ll skip the meat.)
Your version sounds delicious too, Julia. I love recipes, but generally, I just use them as a guideline. Living so far from a store, I make do with what I have.
The beach art looks so cool! Have a great weekend!
I wish I knew how to do resin art because that beach scene is gorgeous. The strawberry lemon bars sound delightful. 😀
Thanks, for reading Kimmie. I love trying kits to see which art projects suit me best. This is why I have a craft room full of supplies I haven’t used in years!!
Ooh that strawberry lemonade thing looks good! Also I wish I knew how to crochet because that wrap with pockets is 🔥
Thanks for reading, Jenny. I can’t wait to try the bar recipe with fresh berries from the garden.
Wanting to make the strawberry lemonade bars. And the crochet wrap with pockets, what an ingenious idea. I love both a warm neck and hands.
I’ve made a version of the strawberry bars for years, but adding the lemon sounds good.
Gina, you always have a great selection of books and treats! Tweeted.
Thanks, Eve. I appreciate your support.
