It’s that time of year again when we look back with fond and sometimes not so fond memories of the year behind us. I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of my followers a very happy and healthy New Year , looking forward to sharing my cooking with all of you in 2013. These are some of the moments I remember:
Sandy Hook -Newtown Tragedy. There are just no words that can express the level of sadness that this tragedy fills me with. Aurora, Colorado this past summer, senseless acts of violence. My hope is for a future that never has another tragedy like this, with some new gun reforms in place, please.
Superstorm Sandy. Unfortunately, I was in NY for this one. It was no fun and #sandysucks was my motto throughout. My heart goes out to all the families who lost so very much due to this storm. Shout out to Chris Christie for just being one hell of a guy during those days.
Our 44th President, Barack Obama.
Locking Jerry Sandusky up for good. Good riddance.

Lindsay is still a red hot mess, won’t someone help that girl clean up?
Linsanity, YOLO, and Fiscal Cliff , some new words to add to the vernacular.
