My blogiversary
I know that the word blogiversary is a made up word. But most bloggers out there celebrate theirs – and I’m no different. My first post introducing myself was on August 28 of last year. I had no idea at the time that I would have blogged about so many wonderful kinds of food (including 40 cupcake varieties!)
I feel like I’ve grown quite a bit over the past year. My confidence in the kitchen has grown quite a bit (thanks so much to Daring Bakers for making me tackle many of my baking fears). I’ve also gotten better at taking photos of food. Man, some good natural light does wonders. Since I mostly blog about my baked goods, I can usually take a picture the next day in the light. But most dinners take place lont after the sun has set, so those pictures often aren’t as great.
Thanks for listening to my rambling over the past year. I hope you’ve enjoyed my blog and maybe tried out a couple recipes throughout the year. I plan to continue blogging although in the near future this will become a kitchen renovations blog. Hubby and I are planning a complete gut of our kitchen down to the studs and subfloor. There will be no cooking or baking in our house for quite some time. Stay tuned!
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
Very neat idea! I may have to try this out, since our house is filled with empty walls at the moment.
Aww this is such a cute idea! I’m not married yet, but when I am, I might consider it… It’s so classy-looking too 🙂

Love the idea and had to send it to my husband. You are so creative – what an excellent job putting it together! Thank you for posting.
What a great idea! Such a fun experience for you both to share! I’ve always wanted to make a map like this and you just gave me the motivation to do it 🙂 I love the map you used!
i made one of these for hubby for our first Christmas together. unfortunately we haven’t had as many opportunities as we hoped to travel so ours looks sad with the lackage of pins 🙂
I love this idea and it’s something we want to do too. Thanks for the motivation! Oh and we’ve been married 5 years so ours will be a not-so-newlywed map too. 😉

Love this idea! Thanks for sharing, I really want to do this!
That’s so crazy…I was just thinking about doing something like this the other day. I guess that means that I need to get on it. Thanks for the idea!
LOVE THIS! Ordering my map NOW!
Is this map only for heterosexual couples? haha j/k. You just wrote hubby (I guess you’re assuming all of your readers are females and are straight), and I was taken aback. This would be great for whenever my future wife and I get married. Thanks for sharing! It really is a cool idea!
Memória – I hope I didn’t offend you. I wasn’t making any assumptions about my readers. I was just speaking the way I talk. This map could be perfect for anyone or any group of people.
I looove this idea! I’m going to do it, even though I’m not married 🙂
