Oh boy! I’m so excited to say that this blog turns one today. A year ago, I couldn’t have imagined how much this little outlet would become such a fun and important piece of my life. It’s given me the drive to try foods I never would have thought to eat, to think about where my food comes from and to make new things every week.
In celebration, I thought we could all enjoy an early happy hour that includes one of my favorite flavors, ginger. My friend Sarah mentioned that she’s been mixing the ginger liqueur Domaine de Canton Ginger Liqueur with Champagne and I thought that would be the perfect beverage celebrate one year. So here’s to you! Thank you so much for being part of this past year… I can’t wait to see what comes in the next.

Throughout the awesome scheme of things you secure a B+ just for effort and hard work. Where you lost everybody was on all the specifics. As people say, details make or break the argument.. And it couldn’t be more true at this point. Having said that, permit me tell you what exactly did do the job. The article (parts of it) is certainly extremely engaging which is probably the reason why I am making the effort in order to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, even though I can notice a leaps in reason you make, I am not really sure of how you seem to connect the details which inturn produce the actual conclusion. For now I will, no doubt yield to your position but wish in the future you actually connect your facts better.
