My blogiversary

I know that the word blogiversary is a made up word. But most bloggers out there celebrate theirs – and I’m no different. My first post introducing myself was on August 28 of last year. I had no idea at the time that I would have blogged about so many wonderful kinds of food (including 40 cupcake varieties!)

I feel like I’ve grown quite a bit over the past year. My confidence in the kitchen has grown quite a bit (thanks so much to Daring Bakers for making me tackle many of my baking fears). I’ve also gotten better at taking photos of food. Man, some good natural light does wonders. Since I mostly blog about my baked goods, I can usually take a picture the next day in the light. But most dinners take place lont after the sun has set, so those pictures often aren’t as great.

Thanks for listening to my rambling over the past year. I hope you’ve enjoyed my blog and maybe tried out a couple recipes throughout the year. I plan to continue blogging although in the near future this will become a kitchen renovations blog. Hubby and I are planning a complete gut of our kitchen down to the studs and subfloor. There will be no cooking or baking in our house for quite some time. Stay tuned!
