is it really 2013?!

by jani on January 4, 2013

I know it is – we welcomed in 2013 with a great New Year’s Eve party at our son’s home. I’m all about welcoming in the new and ushering out the old. However, since I’m still looking at, and I might add enjoying, my Christmas decor while everyone else is busying themselves taking it all down and wrapping last year up in a bow, I’d like to take a very short visit back to some of my favorite posts from 2012.

A few of my favorite recipes… they were all fun to make, great to eat, and awesome to post about!

puff pastry

grilled avacodos

fourth of july fruit pizza

grilled peaches

fig and cheese crostini

roasted chile mushroom soup

pear apple butternut soup

sausage pine nut dressing

maple pecan baked yams

It’s hard to believe that I’ve only been publishing my blog since the middle of May. I love all the aspects of the blogging world and  feel fortunate to be able to contribute my small part! So with this brief look back… here’s to a better year than last for everyone!

If there are a few of these posts that don’t look familiar, I would love to have you go back and read through my blog. I’m grateful to you, my readers, and pray your new year is joyous!

Yum, there’s some recipes that I missed. I’m excited to try some new ones.

I’m so glad, Vanessa. I think I’d have given up long ago without your support!:)

Just had to look at your great blog. Ran across it and am always surprised to see Willett. That is my maiden name. Wonderful blog by the way.

Maybe we’re distant cousins… how cool is that? Is your family originally from Kentucky? My dad was born in 1896 in Waverly, Kentucky(near Louisville)

So…Kentucky? You then know what a holler is! :-) I am averting my eyes from the food! Started Nutri-System and my Nordic-Track. It isn’t so much a New year’s resolution as something I have long been recognizing the need for, as we are getting bigger and bigger, and I know our health is suffering!

Good for you! And, I’m avoiding the rich foods as well. HB, our dog, Emmy, and I need to get healthier this year – not just a resolution for a month, but hopefully a lifestyle change! Thanks for the visit, and I most certainly remember the beautiful hollers of the south! :)
