The Back Porch & More

Picture of the Day
The Back Porch

A back porch can offer a lot of benefits, both practical and relaxing! Here are a few of the key reasons why having a back porch is great:

Outdoor Living Space: It expands your living space, giving you an area to relax, entertain, or enjoy meals outdoors. It’s like adding another “room” to your house!

Connection to Nature: You get to enjoy the outdoors while being sheltered from the elements. It’s a nice way to connect with nature, whether you have a garden or just enjoy watching the seasons change.

Privacy: Depending on its location and layout, a back porch can offer a sense of privacy compared to a front porch or backyard, allowing you to enjoy some peace and quiet without being on display to neighbors or passersby.

Perfect for Entertaining: It’s a great spot for barbecues, casual get-togethers, or just hanging out with friends and family. Adding some comfortable seating and maybe a firepit can make it even more inviting.

Morning Coffee or Evening Relaxation: It's a perfect spot for enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning or unwinding after a long day with a glass of wine or a book.

Fresh Air: You can enjoy the fresh air without worrying about bugs or rain (if it’s covered). It’s an ideal spot for ventilation in warmer months too!

Curb Appeal and Value: A well-designed back porch can enhance your home’s aesthetic appeal and increase its resale value. It's an attractive feature for potential buyers if you ever decide to sell.

Health Benefits: Spending time outside in natural light can improve mood and health, and having a porch encourages you to spend more time outside rather than indoors.

My inspiration this week.

  • Anna on Sutton Place is offering some lovely Easter Printables. You can see them here.

  • Walking on Sunshine has some side dish recipes that your Easter Table needs. They look so good. You can get the recipes here.

  • Mommy Hates Cooking  is featuring her Easy Dill Pickled Deviled Eggs. So creamy looking. Click here for the recipe.

  • Why at Easter time do we have a popular dish that is called deviled? I had to look it up. Yes, it has two wildly different meanings, but the one I am looking for is "To season highly".

  •  I was introduced a few months ago, to a new devotional app that the podcast Girls Gone Bible was encouraging. The app is called Glorify. It is a #1 Christian Devotional App and you can read about it here.

  • This week I will be heading over to Etsy and will share with you some of my favorite finds.
