So what are the 2014 target goals?

Kristin said...

My main goal is to just have another fantastic year! :)

That being noted, I would like to make at least 100 new recipes, double my cycling miles, and do a bit more hiking.

Tentative trips so far are Texas, Galena, IL; Oregon; *maybe* Sweden, and Mexico.

Well see what the year actually brings! :P

Wow! Great list!

BUT . . . there aren't any SOCKS on that list! LOL

Happy New Year ... hope 2014 finds you biking outside and enjoying lots of new recipes!
