A Year of Smitten Kitchen

I love to cook and bake. My kitchen is almost my favorite room in my house, second only to my dining room where I share what has happened, for better or worse, in my kitchen. :) It's where I feel most like myself. 

But sometimes life gets busy and I realize that I fall back on the same handful of meals week to week. I know I'm not alone in this--sometimes it's purely survival! 

So for 2019, I am branching out. I thought it would be fun to try a new recipe every week for a year. And the more I thought about it, the more I thought it would be fun to stick with one source for those recipes. 

Smitten Kitchen, the brainchild of Deb Perelman in New York City, is one of my favorite follows on social media. I've used a couple of her recipes for different things and she's just fantastic.

So every week this year, I'll be making one new Smitten Kitchen recipe. Feel free to join me! I'll be posting on Instagram with #AYearOfSmittenKitchen if you want to follow along. :)
