One year!

As of today, I have been posting on this blog for one year! I have 108 posts (109 if you include this one). I have posted 81 recipes (and 23 of those are for cookies). I'm not sure if I've learned much about baking and cooking, but I have developed an addiction to baking bread. This is a recent addiction and will be reflected in every Saturday post from now on.

Here are a few recipe highlights from this past year:

The recipe I use the most is for the cinnamon pancakes. I eat them at least once a week.

My favorite recipe this year is the cinnamon raisin bread. I made it twice and I think I'll have to make it again soon!

The first banana cake recipe I made was also amazing.

Another recipe that I could make every single week without regret is the Potato-celery soup. Whenever I eat at a restaurant that has potato soup, I now compare it to my soup. I am usually disappointed!

The worst recipe that I made this year is, without a doubt, the frosted fruit salad. It was horrible and made me consider not using anymore of the old recipes!

So... what are my plans with this blog now? I will definitely continue baking from my old cookbooks. I still have hundreds of recipes to go through! I will keep Tuesdays for recipes that come from these inherited cookbooks and recipe boxes.As mentioned, Saturdays will be now dedicated to bread baking. I would like to start doing crafty things on Thursday, but I'm not sure when I will start that.
