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.

Thanks for stopping by and good luck!
I am not even a big cake fan, but that picture made me drool a bit!! =) My goal for this year is to make it through my second year of college alive! Oh, and of course bake more than last year!
My goal is to never by boxed mixes to bake something or buy store bough bread…always make everything from scratch!
My goal for the next year is to do more cooking and baking, but not eat a lot of it so I can lose weight.
Congrats on the blogversary! My goal for next year is to learn how to decorate cakes! So hopefully I win this, because that prize pack will be extra handy :)
My goal this year is to keep painting and learning new techniques.
My goal is to create a collection of family recipes, sounds simple enough…but I've got a big family to gather from. Happy Blogaversary to you fellow teacher!
My goal is to find a job that I really like. One that makes me happy.
Okay, this time I hope to get my comments right! When I congratulated you and said how much I liked your blog, I forgot to tell you my goal. My goal is to try at least 1, but I hope more, new recipe each week. I need to get out of my rut!
Wow what a wonderful giveaway.
My goal for the year is to get decluttered, more organized and also to at least once a month try something I've never done before.
This month I (YES ME) made homemade dill pickles for the first time ever. They were great.
They were also soooo easy, I don't know why I kept putting it off.
