a look back

It's officially 2013, friends.  I'm so glad that we've made it this far together.  And even gladder that 2012 carried with it so many amazing experiences, transitions, and new opportunities.  It hasn't been the easiest year, that's for sure, but, as they say, the best things in life usually take the most work.

I'll happily continue to load up on the tough stuff, so long as life promises to keep throwing its amazingness in my general direction.  I have a sneaking suspicion that 2013 is going to be off the charts.  I'm gonna hustle my butt off to make it that way, anyway.

But before I launch into ideas and recipes to kick off the new year, I want to take a look back at some favorite posts from 2012.

Will you reminisce with me, friends?



Lummi Island

Our island getaway in Puget Sound, Lummi Island is a picture-perfect
escape from city-life.

Grilled Cilantro Pistachio Pesto Shrimp Skewers

A favorite of Sweets, these skewers a simple and
packed with flavor

Baked Trout with Lemon Butter

My sweetheart's recipe.  You've never tasted fish this moist.

Spicy Roasted Clams with Andouille Sausage

I discovered a love for my Dutch oven... and this dish was born.

Lamb Tacos with Spicy Tzatziki

Another creation by my Sweetheart.  It's all about the tzatziki.

Peach Coffee Cake with Hazelnut Streusel

Gluten & dairy-free, packed with peaches
& crunchy sweetness on top

Raspberry Coconut Tartelettes

Tasty little tarts with a healthier nut-based crust and
coconut cream filling.

Pumpking Lassi

And then I went on a pumpkin kick.  This cinnamon
and nutmeg spiced yogurt drink was a fan favorite.

Leftover Turkey & Sweet Potato Hash

And then the holidays came, and leftovers were
my favorite things.

Well that wraps up the nostalgia from 2012.  I have a ton of new recipes to share for the new year.  My focus is shifting toward the ultra healthy as I continue my Health Coach Training.  I look forward to sharing another fantastic year with you all.

Happy New Year!
