I realize this is a little late, but I wanted to break down the most popular posts of 2012.  Thank you to anyone who has stumbled upon this very humble blog that is very much a hobby.  I enjoy all your comments and suggestions!

1.  Oven Baked French Toast:  This is one of my favorite recipes that my mom used to make when I was a little girl.  It has an added bonus that it doesn’t require many ingredients and is very easy.

 

2.  Easy Crockpot Corned Beef and Cabbage:  To be honest, I was surprised by the popularity of this post.  I like Corned Beef and Cabbage and I think this is a great way to cook it, but I didn’t realize so many other people would like it.

 

3.  Cori’s Dog House:  We’re a mixed blog.  We write about recipes and restaurants that we visit and that’s ok.  Cori’s Dog House is a great hot dog place in Mt. Juliet.  Yum.

 

4.  Tennessee Caviar:  (Also known as redneck caviar) This is an awesome dish.  We make it as a treat and eat it with chips.

 

5. Miss Mary Bobo’s Boarding House:  This is a great stop if you are a Tennessee tourist (or a resident).  I take students every other year to tour the Jack Daniel’s distillery.  We eat here every time.  You eat with a hostess, who discusses the history of the town and the boarding house.

 

Most of these posts were written previous to last year.  Here are a few of my favorite post this year, in no particular order:

1. Mushroom Beef Stew:  We make this regularly in our house.  It’s relatively easy and awesome.

 

2.  Phyllo Chicken Pie:  Also a new recipe that made it into our normal rotation.

 

3.  Nona Lisa Pizzeria:  A really great pizzeria in Watertown.   Worth the drive.

 

4.  Gingersnaps:  We make these almost every year around Christmas.  They are my favorite Christmas cookie.

 

5.  Burger Republic:  This is my new favorite restaurant.  I’m so glad it’s close so we can go there regularly.

 

There’s my 2012 review in a nutshell.  Any recipes or restaurants we should try in 2013?
