I don't make New Year's resolutions, really. I've always thought it was funny to make a resolution to do something based on the time of year. Why not do it during some other arbitrary date? Why must we wait to make a change when a new year starts? Sounds like a bit of a cop out to me. Mixed in with a bit of procrastination. Just keep telling yourself you'll do ______ whenever the new year starts. That sounds healthy.
Though I realize when a new year starts, we have the vision of it being somewhat of a "fresh start" ... a clean slate to work with. I understand this. It does make sense -- I'm not that crabby.
This year, I do have a resolution of sorts though. Sometime this year, I will learn how to make Coconut Cream Pie. Yes, you read correctly. I will learn how to make the best pie there is. And I will make MERINGUE topping, not some lame whipped cream topper. I think I can handle this resolution. Now all I have to do is find some recipes.
