Welcome to the To Grandma’s House We Go Link Party #505. Curious how all of you guys are doing for rain so far this year? Here in northern MN we’re experiencing a horrible drought. We didn’t get much snow and it just won’t rain. Literally the worst spring that I ever could have planted my trees lol. We got a little rain last night that saved me so far but I went ahead and ordered 400 feet of garden hose. I had not planned on having to water an acre of trees when I decided to do this *head hits desk* Now, on to the party!
This link party is about all of us sharing homemade, homemaking, DIY, recycling, upcycling, before and afters (of rooms, furniture, whatever), build projects, vintage, any kind of creative, frugal, time saving, money saving or green advice, canning and old fashioned recipes. Going back to simpler times, simpler days where we used all that we had and never bought new until there was absolutely no choice.
Five features will be chosen every week, promoted when the next party starts, shared across all of our social media and included in our weekly newsletter! I’ll tag you if I can on Instagram and Facebook too!
I’m sad to say that lots of bloggers have stopped hosting link parties but I would really miss you guys! I’ve been hosting this party for over 400 weeks, so as long as you guys keep sharing, I’ll keep this party going!

Now, let’s get Link Party #505 started!

First, thanks so much for hosting each week and for featuring my blog about simple gestures. It’s always a pleasure to visit here. Secondly, we are also in a drought here in the Upstate of SC. I’ve been watering the garden for weeks. We are hoping for rain this week but it depends on so many variables. Good luck with your trees.

Thank you Lynne! Yes, it is time for it to rain for all of us it sounds like!

Hi Tarahlynn, Thanks so much for featuring my Cooking Up Eggs post! I’ve shouted out on Facebook! This week we’ve posted about giving kids a 1990s summer! Fewer screens and more outdoor and family time! I hope it becomes a trend! Have a wonderful week!
Thanks Helen!
We are not doing great for rain here in Colorado, either. (I say that and it’s raining all this week, but we got almost NO snow all winter!) Good luck with your trees. We planted fruit trees and raspberry bushes last spring and worried they weren’t getting enough water over the winter, but they look great, so here’s hoping. Thank you for hosting this fun link party! I’ve shared a post about digital scrapbooking and another one about external hard drives being temporary places to store things, not permanent. Off now to see what others have shared. Happy Wednesday. 🙂
Thanks for sharing with us Jennifer, its sounding like everybody in the northern part of our country is hurting for rain. We didn’t get much snow either which is very odd for us!
We haven’t gotten much rain either and then we finally got a couple of good showers. But yes, it’s hard to garden in the spring when there isn’t a lot of rain. Thanks for the party.
Thanks for joining and sharing with us Amy!
I hope you’ve gotten a bit of rain these past few days, Tarahlynn. We’ve had two nights with over an inch here near Minneapolis. I’ve certainly been thinking of everyone in northern Minnesota as I’ve read about the wild fires that took place over the weekend. So scary! Praying that the area gets relief soon!
Yeah I heard you guys are getting the rain this year, we’re all so jealous lol you’re not that much farther south of us! Supposed to get some rain tomorrow though so hopefully that pans out!
Tarah,
Happy Memorial Day weekend!!
My Link Ups for today’s party are # 37, 38 and 39!!
