Top 11 of 2011!
I can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since Bake Your Day was born. What a great year it’s been, too. While I have a long way to go, I have improved so much since the beginning. I have learned so much and met a lot of wonderful people who have truly become my friends. I am very much looking forward to 2012 and what it will bring but I thought I would recap some of my favorite posts from 2011. I hope you enjoy!
Creamy Avocado Pasta with Roasted Grape Tomatoes
White Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Cookies
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your loved ones. May this year bring you many blessings and joy!
XO ~ Cassie
I need to go to sweets anonymous… They all look amazing but I’d love a cookie, a cupcake and a blondie 🙂
Mmm, these all look so good. I would love it if you could send some my way 😉 I can’t believe it’s been a year since you started Bake Your Day — seriously, you seem like a pro and I thought you had this for 5+ years! xoxo have a great New Years!

Its been a good year. This year went by fast. Next month I’ll hit a year. Everything looks so good. Happy New Year.
What a great post! I should have done something like this – it is fun for others to see (especially if you are a new reader), and I also found some recipes that I didn’t see before. Thanks for posting this. I am going to check french cookies and Orzo soup!
These look wonderful! I would love for you to come and share these as part of our best of 2011 recipe series this week! The orzo would be perfect as part of the best main dishes recap. Yum.
I can’t believe you’ve only been blogging for a year! Everything looks amazing – I want a piece of that cheesecake right now!
What a delicious looking year! May you be blessed with many more! Happy New Year Cassie.
Wow! Everything looks amazing! Hope you have a great New Years Cassie! 🙂

And on another note…so happy to have met you this year! I love your blog! 🙂

Thank you Ramona. Great to meet you this year. Cheers to 2012!
Those all look so good I don’t know where to start! Perhaps those French Cookies … similar to a Pizzelle?
Cassie replied: — December 29th, 2011 @ 2:19 pm
Yes, very similar to Pizzelles, only a little thicker!
Congratulations on such a wonderful year! You have shared so many delicious things this year, but I have to say those white chocolate pumpkin spice cookies AND the snickers cheesecake are both calling my name.
Oh my goodness… SO many awesome recipes! I wish I could make them all real quick and eat them up! 🙂
Wow, everything looks delicious! I can’t wait to try everything. Happy to have discovered your blog. Thanks 🙂
Yum! Look at all these scrumptious dishes! I want one of each!

Cassie! You certainly did have an incredible year! Your best of 2011 all looks good. Personally, my sweet tooth is torn between your French cookies and that gorgeous snickers cheesecake! Happy New Year and I wish you all the best in the coming year and looking forward to seeing more of your fantastic recipes and posts in 2012! : )
Oh my! I want it all! And I’ll start with the soup and end with the snickers cheesecake! LOL.

SNICKERS CHEESECAKE??? I totally need that in my life. Happy New Year!
Isn’t it amazing how much improvement and change you can see in one year? I have exactly the same thing – but still much further to go than you, you inspire me 🙂 Every single one of these looks delicious, and I’ve only tried one of them, time to remedy that 🙂 I think I’ll start with the scones…Happy New Year Cassie!
