As we get set to usher in 2012, I’ve been reflecting on the year that was. Aside from a few highlights–creating this blog, reconnecting with old friends, basking in the pride of my kids’ accomplishments–I have to say it’s been a pretty tough year. I will be happy to see 2011 end.
The good news is that, looking forward, there is a lot to get excited about. I have a couple of new projects in the works (mum’s the word, for now) that I am enthusiastic to begin. The bad news is that it’s very likely that the frequency of my blog posts will be affected, at least for a while. I hope you’ll bear with me…I will try to post as often as I can to continue to inspire passion in your kitchen.
In the meantime, we look forward to a quiet evening spent by the fire with close friends on New Year’s Eve. We’ll have our usual over-the-top spread of homemade blinis and caviar, a lovely assortment of cheeses, meats and patés, decadent chocolates, and lots of champagne. I wish you and yours a delicious and very happy new year–may 2012 bring you all love, prosperity, peace, and lots of good food!
Thank you Maggie! It’s been wonderful “getting to know you” in the blogosphere. Wishing you and yours a happy and healthy 2012–I’ll be sure to check your wonderful posts…and I can’t wait to try your ricotta! 😉
Happy New Year Pennie! I look forward to seeing what fun projects you’ve got going for you. The blog world will always be here, and I’ll look forward to the times when you do post. Have a wonderful, safe, and delicious New Year’s Eve!
