I can’t believe it is already time to do a year in review. I feel like it was just a few months ago that I was writing up last years and now another year has gone by. This year has flown by. Besides the typical family stuff, personally this has been a busy year. The blog really took off after I had some time last fall when I was post-op on my foot and put some effort into it. Then, a few recipes went viral and more and more readers started following me on a daily basis. Some of you comment and email me often and I really enjoy that. Others follow me on Facebook or Twitter and we chat on there. I would love it if more chatted back and forth and we could be a little more social. Maybe help others out on the Facebook page, etc. But we will get there. I am just so glad to have you all along here with me. Because there was more interest in my blog, I posted more often and started learning a little more about photography. I also started trying new things in the kitchen and went to a couple of great blogging conferences. I have really gotten so excited about the blog and more so to know that others are actually reading what I am writing and this isn’t just a digital recipe book for me and a few family members! I am thankful to have you all come here each week and check out what is going on in my kitchen and life. For that, I hope and believe 2013 is going to be great! The new site is live and most of the bugs are fixed (although I have to work on fixing all of the links on most of the posts!) and now I just need to get a lot of you following and subscribing to the new site. I am working with some great sponsors which means some opportunities for me and some great things coming your way. Hello giveaways! So, I will say, “Good bye” to a wonderful 2012 and, “Hello” to 2013 which is going to be wonderful! I hope everyone has a happy and safe New Years and you all continue to hang out with me in the new year!

Thank you!  ~Maeghan
