2013 A Year of Progression

I actually make my resolutions in September each year rather than the new year so these aren't brand new. I've always felt September seems like a time for fresh beginnings. Maybe it's because my birthday is in that month, or the summer is fading or memories of the start of new school years. I also find that the dark days and miserable weather typical of January makes it hard to stick to anything other than curling up under a duvet with a good book.
In slight contradiction to this one of the goals I set myself in September was to refocus my attention on food and my blog. I could sit here and list excuses as to why I wasn't great in 2012 (mainly renovating a house and travelling too much with work) but I want to focus on what I'm going to do to change it.
This year I am going to post more, focus on the way I eat and cook and try and share that with you, improve my photography (by dusting off my DSLR) and try out Snapguide. I have to say I'm quite excited about it all!
In 2012, when I did have time to cook, I still religiously took photos (admittedly more often than not iphone snaps but still better than nothing) so please forgive me if I write posts a year later.
Now to start as I mean to go on I'm going to write an article which I intended to post last year...

7 days 7 posts

I decided a week ago that I'd write a post everyday for a week. I was worried I'd find it difficult to find something to write about every day, but thought the discipline would be good for me!

It was actually easier than I expected and I wrote about everything from blackberry and apple muffins to vegetable curry, turkey chilli and cupcakes. It's amazing to look back and realise how much I've actually made this week, especially as there are dinners I didn't write about.

No recipes for today but I'll be back at some point next week with more recipes.
