Courtney's Sweets Highlights of 2011!

This year has been extremely great.  I am always thankful when we have a healthy and happy year, and this year was just that.  Aside from my finger incident all has been well!  





I was so thrilled when I was able to do a review with KitchenAid on their new KitchenAid 13-Cup Food Processor with ExactSlice™ System.  No more mandolin accidents for me!  This processor is a lifesaver!





and the cherry on top was reviewing Calphalon's  new Contemporary Bronze Nonstick 10-pc. Cookware Set.  Nothing sticks to these pans, not even if you tried!


These are two of my absolute favorite brands, and I never thought I'd work with such amazing companies.  Truly a blessing for my little kitchen!





I also shared the recipe for my Best Chocolate Cake recipe.  I'm very picky when it comes to cake, in fact I am not a huge cake eater and choose not to eat something that doesn't taste absolutely incredible.  I'm happy with this recipe that I finally perfected, and I hope you enjoy it too!





In August I survived Hurricane Irene!  Aside from major flooding damaging homes in some areas, everyone in my family was safe, and without harm! 





I was lucky to attend an event Chobani Kitchen in NYC.  I love  Chobani, and was more than eager to attend this event and see many recipes created with this yogurt!





Another event I went to was TECHmunch by BakeSpace!  I was so glad to meet Babette!  I've been on her site for a few years, so it was nice to meet her in person and attend the event!  I fell in love with Jacques Torres' Chocolate Chip Cookies that day!





And last but not least, I found the most incredible Whey Protein!  I was searching for months, trying different proteins, and all fell short on my expectations.  I would get bloated, cramps, and just felt horrible.  That was until I found  BiPro .  Not only do I use it for working out, but I also use it to help me get the most protein that I need throughout the day.  I never want to overwork my pancreas with making it digest meats/poultry multiple times a day.  BiPro has been a great solution for me.


This year was great for my blog, and I hope 2012 is just the same.  I thank each and everyone of you who visit my blog.  Nothing but good for 2012!


Happy New Year!!
