big, huge, super significant

December 31 2009 by Kristin at The Kitchen Sink in Uncategorized » 16 comments

So, I’m going to keep this brief—I’ve got a sunshine-bound plane to catch. This year has been lovely, spectacular, even: full of lots of delicious things to eat, a good portion of my time spent in the kitchen, baking (below) and cooking (above). And it’s been fuller and richer because of this blog, the friends I’ve made it through it, the food I’ve cooked to keep it interesting, the well of creativity in me that’s been tapped because of it, the sense of constancy its instilled in me with every post, the time capsule its become as the weeks pass on. You’ve all been a big, huge, super significant part of that and, as the year comes to end, I’m really not sure how to thank you.

So, I’ll just say thank you. I hope it’s enough.

Oh, and happy new year. May it be even more inspiring, delicious and full than the last year and every single one of those that came before it.

xo,
kristin.

Thank you very much for your blog. I am reading it in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where the cuisine is different. But I like your food, and the way your write about cooking them makes them seem really accessible and possible. I love your photos, and that you can do all that while holding a full-time job. I made pot pies, inspired by yr blog
Have a good good year!

Long-time drooler, first time commenter. Love your blog, thank you for sharing— the recipes are reliably wonderful and I very much enjoy the narratives, food embedded in a family. And speaking of family, a big round of applause to your photographer spouse—brings your story and creations to life with his astute eye.
