I say the 2008 Recipe Challenge Blog Event hosted by The Cook Mobile. I thought it would be a fun way to share my “goals” for my blog this year. This way I will feel accountable.
My 4 resolutions for the year:
1. To move my blog to it’s own domain, and build a site to be what I have dreamed of my cooking blog to be.
2. To try atleast 5 yeast breads over the year, yeast is a scary thing to be, I know in the end it isn’t that scary.
3. To try one crockpot recipes per week, I am going to try one new crockpot recipe each and every Monday.
4. To try more veggie recipes, Adam and I normally have one veggie with each dinner, but its cooked the same old boring way. I am excited to try new recipes!
Recipe I want to try this year…
Mac-n-Smoked Gouda with Cauliflower, I know it’s not a super simple recipe but I tend to shy away from new things, I have never used nor I think tried Gouda I have had this recipe starred since starting my blog, so I REALLY want to try it this year!

My mom and I make cookies every year for Christmas we make tons and then put them in tins and give them as gifts. This year my aunt wanted to help out, we were very excited and my mom planned out all the recipes, ingredients etc. Well the weather decided it had a different idea in mind. We got a huge snow storm yesterday. Adam and I beat the storm but my aunt didn’t she got stuck in the ice storm, so she was unable to make it. 
My mom and I continued on with our cookie making. We saved a few recipes to make for next weekend so my aunt can help out
On the slate for today are… Coconut macaroons, sugar cookies, peanut butter delights, chocolate covered pretzels, peanut butter kisses, and spritz.
This is all our ingredients.
And ofcourse you need the handy Kitchen Aides, this was the first year that my mom and I both had one!
This is my mom and I before.
And after, we were both VERY tired! We started at about 10 am and finished about 6pm.
Recipes to follow.
