My blog has made it through a second year... and it was a GREAT one.
I never thought that I could top the previous year, but we certainly did.
This is by far my favorite thing to post.
Our Top 10 Favorite Recipes of 2012: Savory + Sweet is finally here :)
Let's just say it was really hard to chose between all of our yummy meals, but we managed.
And I officially declare it the year of the fried chicken, waffles, ice cream, & pie...
Oh yeah, and lots of bacon. But that will happen every year.
Thank you to everyone who checks my blog regularly,
It truly is amazing.
So, how were y'alls New Years celebrations?
And, what were your favorite recipes?
I love you all.

Wheeew, WHAT A YEAR!! All such gorgeous pics of your creations. I hope your year is off to a great start. I can now say I have read each of your recipes, and one of my resolutions for this year is to make each one, kind of like in the movie "Julie/Julia" (absolutely love that movie, except the end when she gets "dissed" by Julia) I am sooo excited to see what you come up with this year. Thank you for your inspiration. Miss B
ReplyDeleteIt was quite a year! And I can't wait to see what this year has in store for me... and everyone of y'all as followers :) I can't thank you enough for your support and kind words on each recipe. And I hope that you will let me know about each one of your adventures with my recipes. Hopefully, they'll all taste great. And I completely agree about Julie/Julia, it's one of my all-time favorite movies. It's one you can watch over & over again. Can't wait to hear your feedback!!
DeleteXOXO,
Juliana
