Musical pairing – Thank You (Falletin Me Be Mice Elf Again) by Gladys Knight & the Pips
Here we are at the end of 2010 and at the beginning of a brand new year; remarkable, yes? It has been a crazy, wonderful, challenging yet very rewarding year. And while it seems cliche to say this, it is simply the truth: Smith Bites is here because of you. Our readers who come to this place, read our words, try our recipes and leave comments or not – you’re still here. You’ve been generous to share this blog with your friends and family – and we appreciate every single one of you and sincerely say, ‘thank you.’ We’ve put together a short little video at the bottom of this post so be sure to take a few moments to watch!
To our fellow bloggers, our peers – we thank you for your support, your friendship, your words of encouragement and your willingness to share information so that we can stretch ourselves in ways we never thought possible. You have set the bar high and we welcome the challenge!
Here’s to a brand new year and all its possibilities ~
Salute!
