Favorite 2012 recipes

Here we are, another year come and gone. Can you believe it? 2012 was a good year for us. I became a Mom and … well that pretty much sums it up. It’s been one crazy amazing ride. Amid all the chaos that comes with new parenthood, I did manage to make some pretty sweet treats in my kitchen this year. Here are a handful of my favorites.
