Thanks for hosting. Nice features this week! There is a lavender farm just down the road from my office. It’s very beautiful and smells heavenly too but I often think people don’t know what to do with it.
I’ve linked my recipe for Salmon Meatballs with Lemon Dill Infused Cream Sauce this week. We love to keep canned salmon in the pantry and this is a particularly nice way to cook with it. Enjoy!

Hi! Thank you for highlighting the herb posts! I’m so interested to see the one on preserving herbs, I went and read the other one last week – some great information.
This week I shared my Lemon and Blueberry Cake.
Have a lovely weekend!
