Happy New Year’s Eve, everyone! This has been an incredible year in many ways, most obviously because of the birth of my son. It has also been a year of significant growth for me in the kitchen, and I really think that this blog deserves a lot of the credit for that. I am constantly inspired by all of the fantastic food blogs that I read, and I in turn hope to create a blog that inspires my readers. I truly appreciate my readers and I hope I can continue to provide you with a wide variety of delicious recipes!
When I first contemplated writing a New Year’s post, I thought of doing a “best of” from each month. However, that did not go well. I had some awesome months this year when I was on maternity leave, and I cooked and baked up a storm – trying to choose the best things from those months was agonizing. So instead, I will do this a bit differently. Over the next few days I will post my favorite items from the year in various categories. I have decided to start with cakes because I had many cakes that were visually impressive and incredibly tasty. Don’t miss them!
