I’m finding it difficult to believe we’re almost to the end of April. The spring is flying by so fast, I didn’t have an opportunity to share Friday Faves in March, so I’m making sure I get this one shared for April. Some of my faves are so good, you may even consider them for last-minute Mother’s Day gift ideas if you’re still shopping.
Friday Faves April Edition
Seasoned In Appalachia: Delicious Recipes from the Mountains and Hollers:
Are you ready to journey to the heart of Appalachia? Nothing will get you there faster than flipping through the pages of this cookbook, where author Jimmy Proffitt shares heartwarming personal stories, alongside satisfying recipes. I’ve always loved good, stick-to-your-ribs home-style cooking, and even though I’m a few mountain ridges away in Tennessee, I feel a sense of kinship throughout these pages.
The book has loads of beautiful photographs and covers seventy-five tempting dishes. Some favorites are:
- Drop Biscuits
- Brown Butter Cornbread
- Bread and Butter Pickles
- Appalachian Chocolate Gravy
- Green Tomato Pie
- Marinated Bean Salad
- Sausage Balls
- World Famous Carrot Cake
- Sloppy Joes
- Cilantro Lime Chicken Wings
I love adding this cookbook to my ever-growing collection. I’ve made the drop biscuits and plan on making the marinated bean salad and carrot cake soon. The recipes are easy to follow, but what makes this cookbook special is the way Jimmy teaches what he knows and shows big love for his upbringing, culture, and seasons of Appalachia. He made us want to visit. Learn more about Seasoned In Appalachia at Quarto Publishing. This book would be a great gift for the moms on your list.

Quince European Linen sheets and Duvet cover with Shams:
We’ve drifted off to dreamland quickly this week, thanks to the recent upgrade to our bedding. I never thought I’d like having a duvet or linen sheets, but now that I’ve made the switch, I may never go back to standard bedding again.
Spring is the perfect time to switch out your bedding, and if you’re a hot sleeper like my husband is, you may want to invest in new sheets, but also take a look at your blankets and bedspread.
I wanted fabrics that are breathable, moisture-wicking, and soft, and that’s exactly what I got with their European Linen Sheet Set in Mist and Duvet cover in Navy. They updated our bedroom for spring so well. I love a good home refresh!
They look and feel like a dream on our bed! My husband and I are now sleeping soundly and comfortably all night. The ethically woven flax is only going to get softer with wear, making them perfect for my lived-in, unfussy vibe.
If you’d like to feel the elevated difference of adding European Linens to your bedding, please use this code: INFG-26ISMILEFIRST10 to save 10% on your first purchase with Quince. https://shop.quince.com/ismilefirst This is a bit of a splurge buy, making it a perfect gift for siblings to go in on for Mom.
Besque Magic luxury shower & bath oils:
Summer will be here before we know it, so now's the time to pamper our skin so we’ll feel more confident in warm-weather clothing. Aren’t these bottles of Besque so pretty? They glow, which is exactly what they want our skin to do when using them.
Besque is an all-natural skincare brand built on real skin, real routines, real results for women. Their thoughtfully crafted formulas made with cold-pressed, naturally extracted ingredients like evening Primrose and Rosehip are a joy to use. I opted for the fragrance-free oil to cut down on the patchouli scent. My skin feels clean, soft, and hydrated. And this line is especially good for combatting crepey skin with continued use.
If you’d like to pamper yourself, or gift them, you can save 15% when you shop my affiliate link. https://www.besque.co/WPLCE7703 This set would make a perfect Mother’s Day Gift.
That’s a wrap on my Friday Faves, April Edition. I enjoy putting these together for you and hope they spark your creativity, or help you select a needed product and find gift ideas too.
