I can't believe I've had this blog for a little over eight months already!  It's been a huge joy to make and post recipes for you all, and I can't wait for what 2012 may hold (although I have a pretty good idea already...)

When I was younger, I never really had a hobby.  I had a small taste when it came to playing instruments and I dipped my feet into the sports realm, but nothing really stuck.  It wasn't until last year where I finally found my hobby:

baking and cooking up sweet and healthy confections!

It's funny how much a simple hobby can inspire you in your everyday life.  Baking, and this blog, inspired me to give a little more effort in college and try a little harder in living a healthy, active lifestyle.  I am motivated to get that A in nutrition, chemistry and other classes.  I am motivated to go to the gym and reward myself with secretly healthy foods.

Since the majority of us make new years resolutions to live a healthier lifestyle, I hope these ten most popular recipes of mine will help you get that foot in the door!

#1:  Peanut Butter Protein Balls

#2:  Peanut Butter & Chocolate Shortbread Bars

#3:  Chocolate Fudge Ice Cream

#4:  Peanut Butter, Honey & Banana Uncrustables

#5:  Dark Chocolate Coconut Cake

#6:  Graham Cracker Fudge

#7:  S'mores Pie

#8:  Peanut Butter & Chocolate Krispy Treats

#9:  Banana Bread no.7

#10:  Chocolate Muscle Milk

Okay, so those were my ten most popular recipes, but here are a few recipes that I feel should be on that list!  These are listed in the order of my personal favorites, hehe  :)

#1:  Lemon Pound Cake

#2:  Marshmallowy Coconut Krispy Treats

#3:  White Chocolate Coconut Petit Fours

#4:  Lemon Poppyseed Bundt Cake with White Icing
