Recipe Highlights of 2012





Pretzel Buns...the first (and most popular) post of the year.

I don't usually do a recipe roundup, or a review of my year of blogging, but this year has a different feel for me. On a personal level, it has been a year of loss, yet as difficult as that has been for both my husband and me, we've come to realize how lucky we are in many ways. One of the many things that I am grateful for is you--my reader. My hobby, my blog, is so very cathartic for me. From the creating of the recipes, to the process of baking or cooking, to the taking of the pictures, to the posting of the final product, it is a labor of love. To know that there are people that actually get some value from my work is, pardon the pun, icing on the cake.

I hope that you will enjoy reminiscing with me over the past year...maybe you'll even find something new.





















Thank you, dear readers. May you have a Prosperous, Healthy and Happy New Year!

  2. Wow - I grew up with Johhnie Marzetti (as Johnny Mazetti - my parents met in the Panama Canal Zone) and have never seen it anywhere else. The distinguishing feature of ours is the addition of sliced green olives, which I highly recommend. I didn't know of your blog the last time around, so I missed this recipe. It is great to see it! Thanks!
