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.

My goal for the coming year is to crochet an afghan. I've been crocheting mostly baby blankets the past few years, but I want to make something bigger. I may give it away as a gift, or keep it for myself, who knows? My baking goal is to get back to baking biscotti. It's been too long since I baked biscotti, and I want some!
Your site looks DELICIOUS! My goal is to learn how to work with fondant.
I love Italian creme cake, but have never made it. Now I will HAVE to try it.
My goal is to become a better cook for my family. And with the help of all my blogger buddies and their GREAT recipes.
Thanks for the chance, and happy blogiversary. Hope to see you for many more years.
My goals for the year are to keep up my blog, bake a lot of new things, learn how to take "good" food pictures, paint the interior of my house, lose weight (may be difficult with all that baking going on) and run a 5k.
My goal is to try and perfect my photography skills as well…and to be more productive with my time…and to finish a few books I've been trying to read.
My goal next year is start my own garden
i love your blog :) my goal for next year is to try new fun cupcake recipes!
Oh how fun!! Would love these tools!
Hrm, goals for next year…
I'd having to say improving my photography skills as well. Looking forward to taking a class this September. Seems like there is always something new to learn with a dSLR.
Happy Birthday My Baking Addiction!
