Happy New Year’s Eve! It’s time for one of my favorite posts of the year, sharing our most popular new recipes with you here!
Twenty twenty-one was another interesting year, but we made the best of it, and had some really great moments here on the blog, and at our home.
Some of my favorite things that happened in my world this year were:
- We had an amazing family trip to a beach house in North Carolina. We all got so much sun, had a blast on the sand and in the water, and it wasn’t crowded, win win!
- We also had amazing trips to Lake Tahoe, Seattle and the Olympic Peninsula, and Arizona and the Grand Canyon.
- My husband left his job as a director at a library software company to join me at home, helping with the kids, and helping with the blog a little too. We are excited to see how else he can help out in the new year.
- We did a monthly reader recipe challenge this year, that we started in April. It was so fun to see which recipes of ours people made to enter the challenges. If you want this to continue into next year be sure to let us know how much you loved it!
We are forever grateful for anyone who comes to read and enjoy our recipes. So many people have found favorites in our recipes, just like we have, and I’m forever grateful for every one of you who visits from pinterest, or who reads our emails, gives us love on instagram, and more.
