Two Year Blog Anniversary and 30 Weeks Into Fifty Two In Twenty Two

Two Year Blog Anniversary

and 30 Weeks Into Fifty Two In Twenty Two

I've made a lot of recipes this past year, since July 2021. My first post was July 13, 2020 and I've really enjoyed trying out new recipes and making some familiar meals this past two years. I look forward to continuing on with this blog and I hope you are also. My Favorite Recipes for 07/2021 to 07/2022 are: Lemonchick's Leek, Bacon and Quinoa Dish, Golden Cheese Soup with Parsley Dumplings, 3-Minute Salad (Jello Dessert), Johnny Marzetti, Corn Fritters, Gado Gado, Chicken Salad, Apple Fritter Bread, Big Bertha, Josefinas, Slush, "French" Salad Dressing, Cranberry Walnut Cream Cheese, Malabar Fish Curry and No-Bake Cake Balls.

My top five recipes are:

1) Malabar Fish Curry (Week 27 Entree Meat/Fish #4) - I loved everything about this dish. The taste, texture and appearance. This tasted like something you'd get from a restaurant. I will definitely make this again and I will try other curries.

2) French Dressing/Sauce Vinaigrette - A light, fresh dressing, I've made it a number of times. So good!

3) Lemonchick's Leek, Bacon and Quinoa Dish (09/05/2021) - This was an original recipe of mine. I'd tried leeks for the first time, not long before making this dish. I liked the combination of ingredients and am pretty proud of myself for creating this.

4) No-Bake Cake Balls (Week 28 Dessert #4) - I have made this recipe a number of times already. I've made white cake with white chocolate bark and I've made chocolate cake with chocolate bark. With pretty sprinkles, they were also pretty. Taste, texture and appearance, all top notch.

5) Apple Fritter Bread (A Bonus Recipe from 03/26/2022) - I'd made this dessert bread once before, but I don't remember turning it out as well as it did this time. So moist and delicious. Perfect with coffee or tea.

Honorable Mentions: Gado-Gado (Week 1 Salad #1), Corn Fritters (Week 3 Appetizer #1)
