Top 13 of 2013
Ahh, the optional-but-somewhat-required “Top Post of the Year” Post. I actually debated on whether to do this post or not. I did it in 2011 when I started the blog, I did it last year because I did it the year before and this year, well, I wasn’t sure if I should or not. I’m such a creature of habit but I found myself wondering if anyone really cares what the top posts were for the year.
But of course, my habitual nature won out and, obviously, I’m publishing the post. I decided to go for it because when I started looking into the most popular posts from the year I was able to re-read what I wrote and reflect over the entire year. I never imagined I would be a blogger but I love the fact that I am documenting my life without really even thinking about it.
So here’s how this goes: about 9 of these are really the top 9 visited posts actually posted in 2013, and then I kind of hand-picked the other four to throw in some of my favorites from this year. It’s a combined “top 13″ because, well, I didn’t want to do two lists.
Stovetop Honey Mustard Chicken & Rice
Avocado-Cheddar & Sun-Dried Tomato Quesadilla
Coffee & Cream Oatmeal Cookies
Cinnamon-Sugar Cinnamon Chip Donuts
I’ve said this a few times this year but man, it’s been a wild year. I wouldn’t change anything about this year – from the move to the job to the blog. I loved it all and I seriously cannot wait to see what 2014 brings. Let me just say, also, that I love each and every single one of you for visiting, reading, commenting, tweeting, etc. You all are wonderful and I am looking forward to sharing another year with you.
Cheers, friends, to a whole new year!
xo,
Cassie
