My Top 100 (Update #1)

Well I am two months into this personal challenge of mine and I wanted to take this time to update my list.

I started out strong in September and completed many things off of my list, however in October I did not accomplish nearly as much… Or anything at all. October was a busy month with visiting and catching up with friends. So, with the Holidays and a few birthdays right around the corner, I plan to tackle some great holiday inspired dishes, special cakes, and inspired cupcakes in the very near future.

I also added some other things to my list and now I believe I have over 100 items on the list to complete, but it is always ever evolving.
