Over the last year, our hop has grown and we've implemented some changes to make it better for you.

Earlier this year, we added a website and a Facebook page.

This month we are getting geared up for school to start by filling our freezers.

Not only do I have breakfast foods in the freezer at all times, but I also keep snacks and items for the cookie ministry on hand.  Here is a recipe for Amish Friendship Bread Starter. 

I love Amish Friendship Bread because it is incredibly versatile.  After one full cycle from new, I keep the starter in the freezer until I have a 10 day period where I can tend to it.  Then I bake up several loaves at once and have them ready to go at a moment's notice.

Come back next week for the bread recipe.

Oh, and did I mention that we are giving away two $5 Amazon gift codes?

The first gift code will be given to a guest that links up a freezer recipe. We'll put all the guest links into a fabulous hat and draw a winner on or about Aug. 31.

The other $5 GC will go to a reader who leaves a comment on ANY of the links on ANY of the blogs in the August freezer linky.  Just make sure you leave an e-mail address so we can contact you. We'll use random.org to draw that winner.

Winners will have 3 days to respond or a new winner will be drawn.

So basically for every recipe you link up and every comment made on any of the recipes in the linky, you have an opportunity to win!
