So fun getting to know you better this past year Chey. Always appreciate your kind words and encouragement and I’m a big fan of yours. Have a wonderful New Year and all the good that comes with 2017 friend!

December 29, 2016 at 1:58 pmNo Bailey’s recipes? And what about bourbon? And lavender? No lavender recipes at all? It’s disappointing, Chey! Just kidding. These recipes are fantastic, and I do remember most of them. My personal favorite would be number 9. And please, you need a new year resolution to have some lavender stuff next year. Deal?:)

December 29, 2016 at 6:11 amWhat a tasty year it’s been! I’m not a ribs person myself but I’ll take #s 6 and 10 on New Year’s Day and 3, 5, 8 and 9 looks like a great addition to my January dinner menu! 🙂
I hope you have a wonderful New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day – with lots of PJ time and lounging – and I can’t wait to see all the deliciousness you have in store for us next year!
Cheers girlfriend! XO
