I want to link a current post ie. recipe for "Creamed Spring Onions" to older post recipe for "Sour Cream Biscuits" or "Quick Wheat Yeast Rolls" , so that the reader can see ahh, he has recipes that this post for Creamed Spring Onions would be good with.

Another example would be my post on "Living Among the Plain People" The Amish and the Mennonites, this is a series of posts, I do link to a category, however I thought it would be nice to link the coming (2nd post) on the "Prayer Covering" to the main post.

Is there a way to do this, or just better to link solely to the category. I was thinking in the recipes it would be nice to write the post, and at the bottom put the recipes (links) below that it would be good served with.

Thanks for all of your help and I am hoping everyone is having a good long weekend.

Mitchell
