To Grandma’s House we go! (Wednesday Link Party #160)
Welcome to the To Grandma’s House We Go Link Party #160. I keep seeing this post on Facebook that I think is hilarious: “This time of the year my family and I play a fun game of how long can we freeze before we finally turn the heat on!” I wish I could share it but us Minnesotans have had our heat on for weeks now lol. We had our first major freeze awhile ago and its been dipping down into the 40s for a couple weeks. We also have our first major chance of snow this weekend. Fortunately though, its looking like we’re not plowing into winter quite yet and still have some decent fall days on the way! Now, on to the Party!
This blogger party is all about you sharing your posts about 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.
There will be features every week and they will be pinned on the To Grandma’s House We Go Pinterest page. The party will be shared on Facebook and Twitter and will be in the Grandma’s House Weekly DIY Newsletter!
Rules:
* Up to 3 links per person.
* Please only submit “new” posts: they don’t have to be new on your blog but they need to be new to us!

* Other link parties or submission places are welcome as long as they are within the theme.

I’m Tarah!
It’s been a hell of a ride since I started this blog and renovated and moved into this old farm house back in 2015. I got married, divorced, lost my doggo soul mate, spent two years as a single gal, remodeled everything, threw my back out countless times and was even found by an amazing guy in my own backyard! (The story behind Storyhardt Farm.)
Around here we’re totally fearless when it comes to bettering our home. We love to refinish old furniture, re-purpose old pieces, build it from scratch and totally renovate anything that needs it! If we can do it – so can you. We’ve got some serious plans for this old farm and, for first time ever, I have a real partner!
This is gonna be so much fun!
You can also find out more about the amazing Grandma behind this blog who moved in to this old farmhouse with my Grandpa nearly 70 years ago!
Thank you for hosting! This week I’ve shared with #3 how we decorate our outdoor hangers with a foundation that will carry you through the seasons. Have a wonderful week!
Thanks Suzan, Happy Fall!
Our furnace has been running for a few weeks too, Tarah and we got our first snowfall the other day but thankfully it melted. I’m not ready for winter, but then I say that every year. LOL Love the features!
Yep its gonna hit us this weekend, I don’t think its gonna last but damn I’m not ready for this either lol!
Thank you for featuring my pumpkin pie crisp! you made my day!
I can’t wait to try it! Thanks for sharing with us!
Thanks for the party!! So funny about the heating. Here in Connecticut we’re trying not to turn the heat on yet. It’s been cold (for us) but I’m holding off. Darn heating oil bill! You probably don’t spend as much for air conditioning in the summer, though. Anyway, I’m following on Instagram. I try to follow all hostesses. Best to you, Linda @Crafts a la mode
Hi Linda, yep I actually don’t even own an air conditioner lol just a fan in the window all summer long. I tell people I don’t have air conditioning because I’m soaking up the heat for winter!
Thank you for hosting!
Thanks for joining us!
Thank you for the lovely feature Tarah!
There are so many great projects in this party I am going to have lots of fun browsing through!
Thanks for sharing with us Maya!
It would be nice to have a happy medium between your weather and ours in Phoenix. We are still in the 90s today! Thanks for hosting the party, and keep warm!
Hi Helen, no kidding we could use some of your heat lol!
Thank you Tarah for co-hosting your 160th To Grandma’s House We Go. You worked hard to get things done before the cold set in.
Joy
Thanks Joy, I managed to get it all done so I’m “ready” for winter though I’m not looking forward to it lol!
Thank you for hosting! This is what was highlighted during the week 9-30 to 10-4 on the blog. On Tuesday morning was a breakfast of Corned Beef Hash Browns and Eggs. Wednesday we enjoyed a Veal Parmigiana. Wrapping up this week of comfort food we enjoyed an Easy Double Cheese Baked Penne. Enjoy!
Sounds incredibly tasty and it is totally comfort food time of the year!
Thank you for the party, it seems that punmpkin dessert is calling me as I am seeing it everywhere, it looks so good! Hope you have a little longer fall….
Thanks Karren, it looks like snow for us this weekend but back up into the 50s next week thank goodness!
Thank you for hosting the party. Yes, we have had a pretty chilly fall as well. We have had our heat on for a few weeks now too. And some surrounding areas got some snow today. Have a great week.
Amy we’re supposed to see some snow this weekend but warm back up to the 50s next week so lets hope we all get some more fall before winter sets in!
The freeze game sounds like fun but we are still in t-shirts around here ๐ Thanks for another lovely party.
