Can you believe it’s already February? I just got used to writing 2018 and now I’m going to have to remember we are into February too. I feel a little behind with so much going on in our family, but I’m hoping to get caught up again soon. Especially since there are so many fun things to look forward to over the next few weeks! Not only do we have 2 birthdays to celebrate in our house, but Valentine’s Day and Mardi Gras. Ok, I have to admit, I’ve never really celebrated Mardi Gras, but our mini round-up for Home Matters Link Party is all about the festive holiday today, so I’ll at least be making pancakes for Fat Tuesday! #MardiGrasIdeas #HomeMattersParty
Mardi Gras Ideas
The closest I’ve come to celebrating Mardi Gras is a work conference I organized close to 20 years ago. It fell on Fat Tuesday so we made it a Mardi Gras theme. We had beads, masks, and a baby cake… or something like that. There was a cake with a plastic baby doll baked into it. And we do occasionally go to a pancake dinner fundraiser at one of the local churches on Fat Tuesday. But, it’s hard to do that when Tasha needs to be gluten-free, so maybe we’ll do our own this year. Either way, check out these fun ideas!

I think it’s definitely time to take some new pictures, but here’s my tried and true recipe for gluten-free pancakes which we’ll be having!

Home Matters Linky Party Guidelines:
We are thrilled that you came by to link up today! Here are a few rules that hosts and co-hosts of the Home Matters Party follow, and we ask that you follow them, as well.
- Please link up no more than THREE posts each week–try to make sure that they are new links that you have not shared here previously. (Exception: Holiday/Seasonal specific posts may be shared once per year.)
- Please take some time to poke around and visit some of the other links.
- Please take some time to check out your hosts and co-hosts on social media.
- We appreciate the variety of blogs on the www; however, the Home Matters Party is for links on matters of the HOME. Please link accordingly.
- We ask that you do not add other Linky Parties, Blog Hops, or Giveaways–unless you begin the party with a new project, recipe or post.
- On the same note, please do not add links of an extremist, political or strong controversial nature. (The hosts and co-hosts read each and every blog post linked and will contact you directly if you have linked something that does not fit into the realm of the party.)
With your help, we can continue to grow the Home Matters Party! Thank you!
