The Year of Casseroles "Review" and 2026 Announcement

 The Year of Casseroles

    Well, 2025 seriously sucked. I want to say "for lack of a better word", but it sucked. I took an early retirement (I left with just over 34 years, and I had wanted 40 years) from the federal government, because of the current administration. And that although I have strong feelings about the current administration, will be all I say about that. 

    Because of my early retirement, I was "out of sorts" for much of the year. Job hunting after 34+ years is tough, and I could not find an office job. I landed with a senior caregiving company, which I am enjoying, although I am not making near enough money right now. There is potential to progress and I like to help people, so I'd like to stick with this. 

So, lets now get to my favorite casserole recipe of the year.  Nothing really stands out, but my top three favorites would be: Casserole #17 - Broccoli Rice Casserole, Casserole #13 - Lemonchick's Scalloped Potato Casserole and Casserole #12 - Ham and Noodle Casserole. 

I do plan to finish the Year of Casseroles this year (Six more to go!), but the big announcement is that 2026 will be the Year of Soup. Stay tuned for yummy (hopefully, lol) soups.
