Wow, one year… one whole year I have been writing this blog! As I sit here typing, I am swaying in my chair and singing the lyrics to the 1990′s jam, “It’s Our Anniversary” by Tony! Toni! Toné!
However, I am replacing the word anniversary with blogoversary, because I am cool like that! It’s a damn good thing no one can see or hear me because I way waaay off key and the song in this context makes absolutely no sense!
For my blogoversary, I made The Pioneer Woman’s Italian Cream Cake, and let me tell you – this cake is fabulous!
If you follow me on twitter, you may remember my tweet about having a spoonful of this frosting for breakfast yesterday morning. I did omit the walnuts because Brian is allergic. Instead, I topping the cake with toasted coconut, and it is FAB!
For my blogoversary I wanted to put together a giveaway that would be comprised of some of my favorite things.

Cakes looks divine!
One of my goals in the up coming year is also to become a better photographer.
Your giveaway sounds great!
My goal for this year is to make our treats at home instead of buying processed ones. Right now, my children and I are trying ice-cream recipes..one(at least) per week. My Baking Addiction has given me a much needed jolt of inspiration!
Happy Blogaversary! Love your tasty blog!
Goal? Hmmm. I would like to lose 10 pounds by the end of the year–not an easy task for a cookie/anything baked lover like me! ;)
I would like to save up for a better macro lens and learn to take better pictures of my cupcakes

I am going totry more bread things like foccacia, rolls, and brioche!
My goal is to be happier and healthier. I think my family will benefit too!
