Resolutions - Update

I am re-posting this list of things I want to bake/cook, as a reminder to myself.  You might notice that not much progress has been made.  I'm hoping I can start working on the list in the next few months.  I'm hoping I can make macarons sometime soon - one of my good friends actually has a gorgeous macaron cookbook, and I think I got her excited about making them!

* Pate a choux pastry
* Profiteroles with above pastry
* Croissants
* Pound cake
* Cake with fondant
* Stuffed mushrooms/peppers/tomatoes

Lol... I like the sudden explosion of posts...I wonder why... :p

Just a little recommendation, if you have a lot of posts you can always "pretend" to be active daily for a long time if you just set the publishing day when you want your posts to publish (even if you write them all in one day).

I admire your list and hope you have crossed off a lot more.

Is this a resolution list like for as in a New Years resolution lust? We're still 17 days from 2012! You are so organized. I'm envious. Great post. And I like the name of your blog. Very cool.
I am visiting. I like to read other food blogs. I write a blog about food and my musings on life. Please visit. Maybe follow if you'd like. Happy holidays!
