Bring on the New Year

So 2015 is finally here and along with a new year comes the promise of new goals and resolutions.  I usually make a few resolutions each year that range from getting fit to making my bed every single day!  And this year is no exception… I made a list of goals for myself in this new year and one of those goals is to cook through a cookbook.  If anyone has ever seen the movie Julie & Julia, you will know exactly what I’m talking about.  Basically I plan to cook every single recipe in one of the cookbooks in my kitchen.

After deciding to tackle this endeavor, I also decided that I should blog about it.  Afterall, there is bound to be some great successes and also some amusing and hopefully entertaining failures as I attempt to cook through an entire cookbook.  So yes, this is one of my 2015 goals.

What cookbook have I decided to embrace with this challenge???  I pondered working my way through a Gordon Ramsey cookbook, but decided that for my first attempt I should keep it fairly easy.  So I have decided on  The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl by Ree Drummond.  I love this cookbook and have made a few of the recipes, but I am excited to begin working my way through the entire thing…. cover to cover.  Join me as I share my experiences with each and every recipe.  My first post will be coming soon!!!
