I’m here to announce that Alaska from Scratch is back on the grid just in time to usher in the New Year. I’m coming to you from not only a different house and kitchen than before, but also from a new computer after my mighty old MacBook took its last breath a couple of months ago, forcing me into an unexpected food blogging hiatus. Thank you for your patience, your dedicated visits to the recipe archives, your notes and emails and social media shouts outs, and for your continued love and support. I was able to get a new computer for Christmas and am pleased to say that I am back up and running.
Eggs were the standout ingredient of 2014, featured twice in the top 5. Incidentally (or perhaps not?), I can safely say that I consumed more eggs this past year than ever before in my life. Eggs are one of the most reliable and versatile proteins out there – quick-cooking, soul-satisfying, family-friendly, and phenomenally tasty for any meal of the day. I love me some eggs, folks. And I’m delighted to say, that according to this list, so do you. Also popular were recipes featuring quinoa, avocado, and a spicy kick. You’re my kind of people alright.

Thank you, 2014, for every yummy thing you brought to the table. And wishing you, my readers, a delicious New Year.
