Twenty Eleven
I have a few New Year’s resolutions. I want to be better and do better… you know, easy stuff like that. Do you have resolutions? Be faster and stronger and cuter and smarter? Cut down on the sugar? Take Joy the Baker’s blog out of your feed?
Now waaaaaait a minute… before we do anything too brash.. I have a few New Year’s Resolution suggestions you might like to take into account.
Maybe you want to resolve to see more sky in 2011. That could be nice.
Maybe you want to resolve to drink wine where they make wine.
2011. It’s your year. Get a kitten.
Take a road trip with your sister? 2011 seems like as good a year as any!
Resolve to find happiness in potatoes and eggs.
Read some books. Drink some booze. Make friends. Eat butter. Enjoy cookies.
This is part of my resolution. To be sure.
Watch people who are in love say nice things to each other, exchange rings and kiss. Weddings. Also… eat cake.
And if you’ve resolved to eat more salad… do it with your Dad at a salad bar. Don’t skip the ranch dressing.
Happy New Year to you! May this new year bring you all sorts of good things and happy surprises.
Love,
Joy

Such a lovely post! Happy New Year!!
I have resolved to (continue to) find happiness in potatoes! My only new year’s resolution is to eat potatoes every day of 2011.
Happy new year to you, Joy – thanks for making my 2010 so tasty!
Happy New Year to you as well Joy!
I take my New Year Resolution from my buddy Thumper… “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say nothin’ at all” :) I find that I can sometimes be too judgmental or negative, and I’m going to work on that this year! and, bake goodies!
These are some of the best resolutions I have seen. Happy New Year!!
I agree. Makes me happy. Makes me want to take more pictures. Ahwww
take more pictures.
Thanks for a great year of blog reading, Joy! Love following you!
Make friends. That is definitely on my list! Joy, I love your positivity. The photos on this post are also beautiful. Especially the kittens.
Happy New Year, Joy! I don’t usually make resolutions, but am going to try some this year. And ha! I really hope taking your blog out of their feed isn’t a resolution for anyone.
Ahh, I just noticed the citrus header! It makes me happy.
I love the new header as well!
