    Year in Review

    Here is a thing that some other people are doing, in which one takes the first sentence of the first post of every month from one's blog and puts them in one handy-dandy post. Some of my first posts were poems or articles or other things that I didn't actually write. I've skipped those. (Click on the month to see the whole month.)

    January: "We finally got to see 'The Chronicles of Narnia' this week." (What an exciting start.)

    February: "I'm trying to get back to trying out one new recipe each week." (Ha ha! That didn't happen.)

    March: "Grandpa Rick came to see Piper for a few days." (He's going by "Papa" these days.)

    April: "Laini and Megg have started a new weekly challenge called Sunday Scribblings with the intention of providing 'inspiration and motivation for anyone who enjoys writing and would like a weekly challenge.' " (I don't remember when I stopped doing this. But I did stop.)

    May: "I was so pleased to find a lot of time to read while we were vacationing." ("The Known World," "Cloud Atlas" and "March.")

    June: "David Caruso is an 'actor' in only the Affleckian sense: He gets paid to appear on screen."

    July: "I have to admit it: When I first saw what this week's Sunday Scribblings prompt was, my immediate thought was of Two Peas in a Bucket, a Web site dedicated to scrapbooking."

    August: "My nephew Wilson climbed up on the couch with me yesterday evening and said, 'Aunt Nikki, I love to cuddle with you. I wish you were my bear.' " (This one is my very favorite.)

    September: "I wanted to say thank you to everyone who has been supportive of us recently."

    October: "Tonight I made Thai Shrimp Noodle Pouches and No-Bake Granola Bars from the October 2006 issue of 'Everyday with Rachael Ray.' "

    November: "This site began as an assignment."

    December: "Alex took me to see 'Casino Royale' tonight."


    ..... the end .....
