Bonne Année!

Happy January 1st, the first day of the Gregorian calendar year!  

Here's to leaving everything that happened in 2010 behind and heading head first into a new adventure!  From me to you, let me just wish you a fantastic year ahead filled with great things, good times with good friends and health and prosperity for you and your families.

Don't forget, of course, to take the lessons that you learned with you!  For me, this will likely be not to bake (no matter how much I feel like it) too far into the evening (otherwise, I will be dragging at work the next day). Also, I learned that nothing slows down your baking like only having one cookie sheet (seriously, it sucks pretty hard). Of course, there are tons of others but, in the interest of keeping this short, I'm going to move on to one last thing.

Resolutions.

Do people still make very serious resolutions for their new year of life?  It seems like its something more appropriately done one's birthday.  That way the resolution truly is for a brand new year.  But, hey, that's just me being weird I guess!

I may not have revealed this before, but I am truly a cookbook fiend.  What section do I stumble over to in the bookstore?  Well, fiction first, then magazines but, inevitably, I end up amidst the cookbooks.  I own a few too.  I have not, however, cooked anything (to my recollection) from a cookbook.  I have always cooked/baked from the internet.  My resolution this year is to (hopefully) suck it up and cook from a cookbook no matter how many flippin' ingredients are involved in the recipe.  

The only magic involved will be to use ingredients that I can reuse in other places....

Peace, love and prosperity!!!
