THE WOODEN SKILLET’S TOP 10 POSTS OF 2016

I have so many good things to say about how far my little blog has come over this past year.  I busted my BUTT (and loved every minute of it!) and I really feel like the hard work has paid off.  Looking back at some of my first posts…. (yikes, I didn’t understand the concept of “natural light”)…. it is fun to see how my photography and styling has progressed and to see all the fun, different recipes I have attempted to tackle.  I accomplished nearly every goal I put in place for myself and I am beyond excited to see what happens in 2017.  It was nice to take a little breather here in December and pull back on my self-imposed demanding schedule, but my mind is never far from dreaming up my newest recipe and styling the shoot in my head.  So many yummy and beautiful recipes are on the horizon – so stay tuned.  Thank you for the amazing feedback from everyone and everyone that has pushed me to go after my goals.  I love my Top 10 recipes!  They are some of my favorite as well!  I hope you all tackle your own culinary goals in 2017~
