As I read other food blogs' year in review posts, I kept telling myself to stop and start mine or I'll run out of time! Of course, I do have almost 9 more hours until the clock turns and 2009 is here.
Last year I gave you a list of my favorite recipes from the year. This year, I'm going to be ultra creative....and do it again. I got you, didn't I? Well, actually, I'll do it a bit different... I'll even list some of my accomplishments from the year, too. Still not very creative, but hey, I am running out of time!
