I sometimes describe myself as a person who is always “peeking over the fence.”
No matter what I’ve done, accomplished or earned, I always have my eye on the next step.
The next promotion, the nicer apartment, the faster mile pace on the treadmill, the smaller dress size (um, or something).
Having just moved to a new apartment and lacking an internet connection, I haven’t been able to keep up with blogging as much as I would have liked. I scheduled a few posts ahead of time but today, the well was dry.
No photos, no blog-worthy recipes in the queue.
So, using the sliver of signal I’ve managed to muster thanks to Comcast Bill I thought I’d do a new kind of post.
So for once, rather than looking ahead, I’m going to take a moment to look back and reflect on my accomplishments during the month of November.
Here, you’ll find a round-up of the recipes I posted in November, some my own creations and some shared by cookbooks, magazines and blogs.

Psst…it’s November 30 and I didn’t miss a day of posting. I can now happily say that I’ve completed National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo). If you don’t hear from me for a few days, send help. And recipes.

December 1, 2009 at 4:32 pmI like this monthly index of recipes. It lets me know if I missed one. Isn’t there a phrase “Out of necessity an idea is born” –or something like that?

December 1, 2009 at 9:42 amThanks for the recipe round up. You had so many great ones that I’ve already made or am planning on making (I couldnt keep up with all of them in just one month). I adore your blog and your recipes. Thanks for sharing. I routinely use your archives when I need to make something great.

December 1, 2009 at 9:09 amCongrats on completing NaBloPoMo. I remember feeling so relieved last year when I was done, and then a few days later realized that I missed blogging a lot. Go figure. I think it gives you a whole new appreciation of what you’re doing.
The recipes look wonderful. I’ve bookmarked several and probably will add them to my upcoming kitchen adventures.
