Happy 1 Year Anniversary, Because of Madalene!

 

I can't believe it has been a whole year since I created my little diary/recipe index.. that I thought would have petered out by month three.  There have been some changes along the way but good reflections on how much I've grown since last year.  I've recovered from a difficult break up with my first love (which catapulted the start of the blog in the first place), made a life changing diet toward gluten free (that has helped me feel miraculously better) and have purchased my first home (a new journey that I'd like to share with you in the upcoming months)! 

I had a good feeling about this blog adventure and never knew how much it would shine a light on new discovered passions such as food, writing, story telling, etc.  And I have all of you to thank, for continually supporting me with your kind comments and encouragement to "keep it up".  I plan on blogging a while longer by sharing more recipes, home projects and family history.  I'm excited to see where this can take me in the future whether it's a career change toward food or continues to be an enjoyable hobby that gets me through the week.  Thank you, Grandma Madalene, for watching down on me and reminding me that family and creativity will help you find your way.
