Happy New Year!
Tonight, from San Francisco, I’m raising my glass to one heck of a memorable year.
There have been highs and lows, lots of learning, some tears and plenty of beauty.
Loads of goodies have come out of my oven. Photos have filled the memory of my computer, and silly stories have flowed out onto the Internet.
Here we are at the end and at the beginning. Like a hop, skip and quick restart.
Here’s to Dad’s who make pancakes.
Here’s to history in the works.
Here’s to a big, bright, sweet and happy future.
Happy New Year!

I still haven’t made your apple pie, and I’m sad about that. However, I have a slew of apples waiting to be consumed somehow, AND I have an empty house and an equally empty afternoon to fill. Hmmm… apple pie to bring in the new year? Definitely.
Happy new year to you too! Eager to read more new and interesting posts :)
I approve of doughnut hunts and many more in 2009. Happy New Year!
