And then my eyes were opened. Comments started coming in and friendships were formed and photography skills were grown. From where I started with my first post to all the way to today, a lot has changed. Now I know how to cook (more or less), can take pretty good pictures (most of the time), and am quite aware that a community exists in Blogland. And this week I hit my mark of what would define me as "a real blogger". I hit 100,000 pageviews! WOW! I said a long time ago that THAT would be my moment of realization that I am a part of this blogging world, and now I am here.
Really, though, things have remained the same -- my goal is not to be a famous blogger or even get the most pageviews/etc., but to have a place to share my cooking and life experiences with friends and family. It's just today that circle has widened, because now it includes YOU!
To celebrate, I went back and found my personal Top 10. If I could direct you to just 10 recipes on my blog, these would be it, but of course, I hope you check out more :) Enjoy!
