So a whole year has passed…

Hard to believe that another year has flown by!  As I was going through my blog over the past year I have realized a few things.  I bake way too much and our eating has become rather unhealthy in the later months of the year.  One of my goals for 2010 is to change all of this.

Anyway as I was going through the past year in food I picked out some of my faves to do a short round up…hope you like!

Short Ribs cooked Low and Slow:

Oh my gosh, Judy--it all looks wonderful! Canadian Pork Pie? My mom used to make it every year for Christmas. I've been totally missing it. Great round up!

Happy New Year! I like your idea of getting back to healthier recipes. I have a suggestion. How about taking out the white carbs (white sugar, white flour) out of the recipes? That would fit right in with your organic and whole grain side. I would really love that! It'd be even better if those great poolside cocktails you make could be low carb'd!!! If that's even possible! :D

Oh, I've been thinking of those pop tarts lately. I don't at all like actual Pop Tarts, but these homemade ones...I love! Thanks for sharing them. :)
