One of my goals for this year is to try a new recipe each week, they don't have to be elaborate or challenging, just something I haven't cooked/baked before. Since I am posting the list of books I have read, I might as well post the list of what i have done, too. Heh, I am a bit behind as of writing this, but think I a can manage to catch up by mid-summer.
Okay, it is the beginning of November and I am totally behind. D'oh!
Only 8 days left in December and I am 14 recipes shy. I was making decent headway into catching up till everyone ran off for the holidays and I don't have people to cook for. Hmmm.

1) Chocolate cupcakes (from Chocolate on the Brain)
