January Menu & New Years Wishes

Out with the old and in with the new, the New Year that is. For me Christmas came and went so quickly. I am looking forward to 2010 and all the new things it has in store for me. I don't know yet what 2010 will bring me, but I am hoping that the new year will be a great and adventurous one. I want to wish all of my readers a Happy New Year. I also hope that this will be the beginning of a prosperous and special New Year for all of you. First off I want to thank everyone who stops by to read all my posts and recipes on Mommy's Kitchen. Without all my loyal readers my site just wouldn't be the same. I also want to take this time to let everyone know just how much I enjoy all my readers, friends, fellow foodies and blogging buddies. I have met so many wonderful and genuine people on my blogging journey. I enjoy visiting all of your sites and gathering recipes and ideas that I can share with my own family, so I want to thank each and everyone of you.

Today I decided not to make any new years resolutions, but to be thankful instead. I am blessed in so many ways. I have a roof over my head and food on my table. I have a happy and healthy family, a wonderful husband that works very hard and three great kiddos. I am so lucky to be enriched with great friends near and far in my life. I also enjoy doing what I love with my little old blog. So no resolutions for me, I just want to be thankful for what I have this year. OK I guess that's enough of the mushy sappy stuff. So back to business!!! Today I am also posting my January Monthly Menu. I had a few carry over meals from last month that did not get prepared. You can chalk that up to eating what ever we wanted this holiday vacation. Plus I have listed a few meals that I am incorporating some leftover meats from the freezer. So for everyone who is familiar with Menu Plan Monthly then y'all know how it works. If you have a monthly menu plan I have included MckLinky at the end of this post. So link up your monthly menu plans it's as easy as that. Be safe tonight and have a wonderful New Years Eve. I am hoping (fingers crossed) to post my top recipes for 2009. So stay tuned.
