It’s hard to believe but here we are! ONE YEAR! When I started this, I had no idea how rewarding blogging would be. I have made new friends, learned new culinary skills, and explored different ingredients. I am so glad to be here, at this milestone, looking forward with great excitement to the next year.

Thank you so much to all the viewers-

My family- So many of them have passed on my link to their friends. Thank you!

My Friends- For telling me about the fantastic foods you have eaten, tried in your own kitchen, or flavor combos that have inspired you. My friend David was the one who inspired the Salad with Salt-Roasted Beets, Pecans, and Blue Cheese, an amazing flavor combination and a dish I could never tire of.

The blogging community- Such a kind, supportive place where you can learn how to make new things (I want to try this Jewelry Cork Board), where you can meet fantastic new people (Greg and Katherine, Rosemary, Karen, Celia, Ashley, and Cecilia, to name a few), travel to new parts of the world (like the country of Georgia), and see beautiful things every day (like these gorgeous flower photos by Portraits of Wildflowers). Suffice it to say that the blogging world is phenomenal! You all have taught me so much and opened my eyes to a whole new world!

And those who just stumbled across Annashortcakes by accident. I wouldn’t be here without you!

To celebrate, I thought I would recognize some milestones of the blog.
