Goodbye, 2011

December 31, 2011 By jennie

If you read as many blogs as I do, you might be sick of these end-of-the-year posts. But I love New Year’s. The change of calendar year is all about reflection and rejuvenation, and because I’m an introspective person by nature, I love taking the opportunity to think about the person I was a year ago and the person I’d like to be in the coming year.

2011 was not an easy year for me, personally, so I’m looking forward to welcoming a new year. But before I start looking forward onto the year ahead, let’s take a look back on some of this past year’s foodie highlights.

Looking back on the past year, I’m so glad to have my blog! It gives me a place to revisit my photos and recipes and memories from the past (almost) six months. Here are a few favorites:

Favorite Recipes:

And so, Happy New Year, friends, family, readers! I hope you all enjoy your celebrations. I’m going to try to stay up until midnight to ring in 2012, but I can’t make any promises 🙂

    I think I missed the post about making ghee- gotta check that out, I’ve been thinking of giving that a try, and lessening up on the dairy in this new year. Hope you have a fun night whatever you might do, and happy new year 🙂
