Happy 2010, ladies and gentleman! I hope you all had very exciting plans for New Year’s Eve. I certainly did… Mr. Kitchenette and I stayed out all night and partied it up, drinking champers and going wild at the hottest bar in town.
… Just kidding. We are SO much more cool than that. We made chicken pot pies, watched the new G.I. Joe movie and went to bed at 10:30 pm. Who would pass up Channing Tatum shirtless? I rest my case.
I know, I know. We’re SUCH LOSERS. But I had to be at work on New Year’s Day at 8:15 am. Which brings me to my next point… I’ve been remiss at updating the blog lately, my dear readers, and I apologize. I’ve wanted to write you funny and witty posts, but sometimes I’m not feeling too witty after a 15-hour day at work. Hopefully my work will mellow out in the next few weeks and I’ll have more time to post, because even though I haven’t been writing about recipes, I’ve still been cooking them. And I have lots of stuff to share!
Anyhoodle, in the spirit of New Years… I made a resolution for 2010. And it’s to take more pictures of my life. I take plenty of food pictures when I’m cooking something for the blog, but not a lot of pictures of me or Mr. Kitchenette, or of our life. So this year I’ve resolved to be a part of Project365, which is a pledge to take at least 1 photo per day and share it on Flickr, a photo-sharing website. You can follow my progress here and the food-blogger-specific Project365 here. I’m really excited for the challenge of finding something “photo-worthy” each day for a whole year. I think it will encourage me to find beauty in the little things in my life.
Like, um… today’s picture. I found this onion in the back of my cabinet. I think it may be a wee bit old. I don’t know. Something’s just telling me it’s been in my cabinet a while…. perhaps it’s the mohawk growing out of the top?

Also, these guys seem kind of fun. Do you think they’d want to come over for pie?

What were your 2010 resolutions? Did you make any?
<space>
Dang I was thinking you could bring your camera to work the next few weeks and I would help you find something…then I realized we will only be working together one more day. You lucky duck…
I have several new year’s resolutions … well, I originally made a list of 50 or so. Anyhoodle (guess who I learned that from!), one is to become more “social media” literate. And to think that I used to be a computer programmer back in the 80′s. The second is to find a way to get the Kitchenette to move back east. Just kidding. I would never meddle in their lives. (Oh yes I would.) Happy New Year!
i’ve been bummed b/c i’ve been so sick that i’ve missed thinking about the beginning of the year and pondering my resolutions.. but i will.. I WILL! XO
