A trip through my 2012.

Another year has come and gone.
WOW. Where did 2012 go?!

I seriously believe that by the time I'm 50 a year will pass by in the blink of an eye. Time just seems to be whizzing past and I've been struggling to keep up.

2012 was the year I finished post-grad in public relations - thinking it would be my last bout of school but, who knows, maybe I'll wind up with a masters tucked under my belt in a few. I traveled to Poland for the first time and Italy for the third. I started to really cook with passion behind it. My longest, best friend got married. I proudly ended an exhausting, going-nowhere-semi-relationship. I landed an incredible internship. I turned 25.

Here I am now though, in the beginning of 2013, in total panic mode. Going for coffees with friends of my old bosses, scouring the internet for job postings, trying to figure out how I can get an apartment in the next month. I'm kinda freaking out.

But I have a feeling that 2012 was just my ramp-up year and that 2013 is going to be full of successes, adventures and new recipes for happiness.

Here is a little trip through my 2012.

Graduated again with a PR post grad - woohoo!

My family got a new puppy - we named her Lottie.

My first time in Poland. Spent an emotional day at Auschwitz.

Rome.

I could live in Italy.

Refreshing watermelon & tomato salad.

Homemade 'zaaa.

Poppin bubbles on our way to Montreal!

The best salad I ate in 2012.

A few snippits of an amazing weekend with my besties.

One of my longest and bestest friends on her special day!
Plus one of my favourite purchases of the year - my dress from Italy.

First attempt at homemade Chelsea buns - couldn't snap a picture before some were gone!

What most of my summer weekends looked like.

Lottie dries herself with a towel.

Sisters!

A deliciously simple summer dessert.

Cottage nights.

Could look at this view all day.

Hard to beat a good ski on a calm lake.

One of my favourite pictures of the year - caught Lottie in midair!

One of my birthday dinners - first time eating foie gras!

Third place finishers in the Chef's Challenge Cookie battle.

CHUCK HUGHES!

Can't get enough of this little girl.

Mont Tremblant.

I think Tremblant is one of the most romantic winter getaways.

Ringing in 2013!
