Hello World! So we are halfway through January. How are you coming on your resolutions or goals? I'm making headway. I've lost 6 pounds so far, and am making progress on the half bath paint job. Yes, I decided I wanted to lose weight and have put a plan in place. So far so good.
Before we get to the party, I want to show you what I've been up to.
Of course, like almost every other blogger under the sun, I did a post dedicated to the Top 10 Posts of 2015.

I finally gave you sweets a tour of my kitchen. I know, it's about time, right?
