This is the time of year where I take a look back at what you have liked the most on the blog over the past 12 months. 2015 has been a quiet year compared to previous given the arrival of my daughter so only 12 recipes made it to you.

So I thought it would be nice to look back and see which of my posts proved to be the most popular since I started this blog in April.  Although it has only been eight months, I really have enjoyed writing each week and it is certainly making me try new things as I am sure you do not want to read about the same thing over and over and over again.  I am also thankful for your feedback and hearing from those of you who have made something that has appeared on here.  It makes me smile.

One of my goals this year is to cook more from the numerous cookbooks I have acquired over the years.  I tend to get seduced by the beautiful pictures and the intriguing stories or I only buy them for one recipe, and don’t often actually cook from them.  That will change otherwise I don’t think I will be allowed to buy any more.
