What a year it has been-2015 in review

Well, as I write a wrap up for the year and review how it has impacted on my life I really can’t believe how quickly it has gone.

2015 was the year that I started this blog and did my first post.

It was also the year I decided to write a cookbook and I started developing recipes for this little adventure and I must say that most have been really good and I only had one or two that won’t make the list.

I made my very first Christmas pudding for Christmas day and I must say it was delicious and enjoyed by all who had a piece.

2015 was a year with a lot of sorrow in the news but we have to try to remember the good that happened as well.

For me, 2015 was a wonderful and brilliant year. It was a year which saw me facing fears, healing old wounds and letting go of a lot of toxic people, things, friends and embracing those in my life that make my heart smile and love me. And it was the year I said to God: ‘Yes I trust again-thank you.’

As I get ready to sit back and watch the fireworks with my husband and say goodbye to 2015 I am filled with happiness and anticipation for the New Year ahead. So many more blogs, so many more recipes, so many more lunches and dinners catching up with family and friends.

I feel like I am the luckiest woman in the world, married to the most wonderful man. We have the most beautiful daughter of whom we are so proud and we love her beyond words. I have friends who are worth their weight in gold. I am lucky to still have my mum in my life and never take it for granted. I still have my Aunty and also a friend who is also like an Aunt, and with my mum I feel blessed to have these three older people in my life.

I am so glad that this year ends for me with happiness and gratitude and, even though it hasn’t all been perfect, it has been wonderful…. And I wouldn’t change a thing.
