Tomorrow is May Day and coincidentally I had my granddaughter and her best friend at my house today so we had a fun time making May Day Baskets. For me it was a little walk down memory lane because my kids and I use to make May Baskets every year until it was no longer the "cool" thing to be caught doing. In all honesty, I don't know if anyone shares May Baskets anymore but it is a fun activity for kids. The reason I am a fan is it teaches kids the value of giving of their time and giving to others.

Welcome to the Four Seasons Blog Hop
A party where we can celebrate the greatness that each season brings to our lives.

Before we get started, our wonderful Co-Host, Betty Taylor, is taking a summer sabbatical. We wish Betty a fabulous summer and hope to see her back this fall.

Quick & Easy Loaded Tater Tots
Loaded Tater Tots is a quick and easy appetizer or meal. I love loaded baked potatoes and when I have time I like to make them the "old fashioned" way in the oven and not the microwave. However, this is a great substitute for those days when you don't have time to wait for baked potatoes. And the guys in the family love this dish!!

Building a Community Garden
For the past two years I have been facilitating a community health initiative with one of our goals opening a community garden this Spring. So for the past several months I have been immersed in developing a community garden plan, writing grant applications, identifying what amenities we want at the garden and marketing. The past few weeks have been extremely hectic trying to get it off the ground (no pun intended). In fact, it has taken so much time that I have been diverted from a lot of my blogging work! So my apologies to all the hosted parties that I have missed. I'm ready to get back on track with my blogging duties!
With $3,600 in grant funds from our the Polk County Health Department and United Way, we were able to move forward with our community garden.

Nothing like spring and the first taste of fresh strawberries, kiwi's and of course my pineapple out of my garden. I just can't get enough whether for breakfast or a snack.
Tropical Fruit Salad
1-Kiwi
6-Strawberries
3/4c-pineapple chunks
Place all ingredients in a bowl and if desired sprinkle a little sugar (1Tblsp.) on top stir and place in bowl.
You can also top with toasted coconut, chopped nuts, whip cream or natural sugar cane crystals.

Easy Cauliflower & Bacon Salad
This is a wonderful creamy salad filled with cauliflower, bacon, cucumbers, cheese and a sprinkling of peas!
It is one of my top favorite salad recipes. It is a great every day dish but it usually ends up on my menu for parties and holidays. It is an especially nice salad to serve for Easter dinner.
