    My Dear Blog Friends,

    The year nears it's end and it is common for the food bloggers to make a top list of their favorite post of the year.

    Crunchy Creamy Sweet's first post was up in August - which is pretty late in a year, too late in my opinion to make a list of my top recipes. Don't get me wrong, I could go on and on about my favorite cookies, this amazing jam, or this divine sauce. 🙂

    I decided to focus on what new this year brought me. It's a lot of it and it's amazing!

    In June of this year, we welcomed our Baby Boy into the Family. He is so precious! Loves to giggle watching his Big Sisters making silly faces. 🙂 It finally allowed my Amazing Hubby to get some boy's stuff ( think cars and bikes 🙂 ) and me to add blue to our favorite colors!

    We celebrated our oldest Daughter's birthday with a big bash this year. A lot of the treats I made for the party ended up being my first posts on this blog. I still kick myself for not taking the picture of the cake, which was Rapunzel's tower from "Tangled" and it looked amazing!

    I started Crunchy Creamy Sweet shortly after and what a great experience that's been! I am very grateful for all of you who read it. You might think that triple digit number would be something to brag about, but for me every Follower / Fan is special and I thank you today for clicking the "Like" or "Follow" buttons. I notice each and every one of you. I try to respond to every comment you post. You encourage me to bake more and share it here, in my little sweet piece of the blogosphere.

    Thank you to all the readers via e-mail!

    And those who just happen to stumble upon my blog!

    I hope you will have a wonderful time tomorrow, wherever you are, clinking the glasses toasting the New Year. May the New Year bring happiness and joy to your life! And lots and lots of sweetness! ( I will try to take care of that anyways 🙂 ).

    Happy New Year!
