Happy New Year!

Best wishes for a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year to all my friends here at TFL! old and new.

We've certainly shared lots of good times with our love for flour and yeast. My husband terms my almost nightly visit to TFL as "Breading", as in "What are you doing, breading?"

It's truly awesome how much this site has grown! Floyd, I remember a while back you broke down our membership by countries. It was amazing then and I'm sure phenomenal now (no, I'm not asking you to do it again, too much work!)

All the best..Floyd & Dstroy and kids, Howard, Dave, Mark, SourdoLady, Jane, Mini, Eric, Bill, Qahtan, MCCool, JMonkey, Norm, PaddyL, Chahira, Susan, Annie..oh gosh, I know I'm forgetting so many...sorry! and to all the new family too! Be safe!

I wish good health and happiness to all my good breadbaking friends!  May your breads always rise and give you joy and good nutrition, so you can all stay healthy.  My first reaction when I came to this site was, "Wow!  It's all about my favourite topic - bread!"

Here's wishing you and your's, along with everyone on TFL, the best of everything in 2009.  This site is special, with a great group international bakers who are genuinely nice people.  I'm grateful to have been able to participate in the fun and some very interesting baking projects on TFL during the past year.

EDIT: Betty this is my new look.  Bought some of Estaban's old clothes, ties and hats at a garage sale near Flagler Beach last week.  Yeah, it's same Estaban who dresses in black, wears sunglasses and sells guitars on QVC.  :>)

May you knead with vigor and slash with confidence.  May your ears bloom, your crusts crisp, and your crumb be full of holes.  And whether your bread be sweet or sour, may it bring health and joy to you and yours throughout the year.

Salut!

Can't believe how much I have learned on this site. It is truly part of my day!  I'm kind of a silent listener but am very involved in TFL!  My batteries died on my camera but ......move over,  I can't wait to post these beauties. 

A heart felt " Happy New Year" to all!!!
