Taking a Look Back at 2012

Can you believe the year is almost over? In many ways, I'm excited about 2013 making its appearance next week. There is something wonderful about the blank slate of a new year.  There are resolutions and plans to make yet. Before we go there, let's take a look back at 2012...at some favorite posts.
I love cooking and baking for my family. From the heirloom recipes to the quick and easy dishes,  here were the top 5 according to your views:
Sour Cream Pork Chops

I also enjoy crafting for the seasons and changing up decor. Top 5 according to you:
Burlap Bird Ornaments

Modern Botanical Bloom Print

Occasionally, I work in some household tips to help my house and yours run a little smoother. Here were a couple of cleaning tips that peaked your interest:
Making Cloudy Glasses Sparkle Again
Cleaning Stainless Steel Appliances

That about wraps it up! I have thoroughly enjoyed my first several months of blogging and I look forward to all that 2013 will bring! I've got lots more recipes to try, plenty more crafts to do and I even hope to tackle some household DIY projects.

I am so thankful that you spend part of your day with me. I hope you'll join me in the New Year too!

I'm linking up at some of these great parties and
