Hi there,

I came via Rachel's link up, and am glad to have found you… You've given me some great posts (and recipes) to look forward to reading (and trying).

Here's to 2010!!

Thank you, Lucy. I didn't know anyone missed the random post feature. I'm going to try to figure out how to filter out past contests and menus. Enjoy!

This is the best blog I found this year. You have solved so many problems for me! I knew this was a special place when you posted about Peg Bracken's passing. I have all her books, which were all I, the daughter of a woman who had a housekeeper, had to work with before finding you gals. I do miss the Random Posts link you used to have. It was a great way for a late-comer to explore old posts.

Should I tell you now that the wilted spinach isn't a salad? Although that does sound like a good idea. I have a candied bacon spinach salad that makes me drool at just the thought.

I was in bed by 9:30 last night, so do not feel bad. I took the advice of my pal @jwynia and rang in with another timezone. I'm so glad you've found this site useful; that's my big goal. I really want this to be resource that creates positive experiences. Whether it's a successful attempt at cooking or the ability to tackle household tasks with confidence, these skills have kind of a synergistic effect in a person's life. If the home is in order and meals are manageable, other areas either improve or just don't feel as overwhelming.

I am positively giddy about all the things that 2010 will set into motion. I've more or less had to step away from LCB, but other people are stepping up into the role of event organizer.

I'm struggling with the organization. I think, once my current project is complete (June) I'll reorganize the homepage to make content more accessible, the site will continue to grow with content as a daily blog, but so many of the posts are not time dependent that it's silly to bury them in an archived format.
