?  Some months were just a blur looking back.  I'm not quite sure what happened.  New years resolution:  Take better notes!

2011 Resolutions I accomplished were spending more time with family and friends, trying and mastering some recipes, got a bit more organized, kept up the walking, did new things and visited new places, Yelper, Examiner writer, Blogger, became more green, ate better until the holidays hit.

2012 brings new resolutions and new challenges.  I hope to continue the good work I put in place in 2011 and develop some new good habits like meditating, learning a new skill and as always loose a few pounds.
