Best of 2011 & Happy New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I just wanted to take a minute and thank all my wonderful readers, family and friends who have supported me during this blogging adventure. I posted my first recipe on January 17, 2011 and have been cooking, writing and blogging almost every day since. I am so grateful for your comments and emails and I have a ton of ideas to improve this site in 2012.

I just want to say a special thanks to Craig, who is constantly helping out and brainstorming ideas for the blog. He designs recipes, takes photos, and makes last minute trips to the store to get ingredients. Not to mention the fact that the poor guy has to wait while I take photos before eating dinner most nights. I also want to thank my Grandma Jackie, who is my #1 fan and best recipe tester. She has provided me with ideas and feedback and I am so grateful for her help. 

So, to sum up, here are my top 10 most popular and most commented posts. Looking through this list, I am pleased that most of these dishes are healthy makeovers of traditional recipes and popular take out dishes. I have so many light and lean dishes to get us through January! So thanks again for reading!

Kisses & Hugs,

Dara
