Cookbook Countdown: 24 Days to Go: Cornbread Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon

Happy New Year! 

In honor of my husband's southern heritage, I whipped up one of my most cherished recipes in the cookbook: cornbread. 

Hoppin' Johnis "the" traditional New Years dish in the South, but cornbread is often served as a side and since I'm always up for an excuse to make this recipe... I indulged.

Top 10 of 2010!Well, doesn't this post title have a nice ring to it?

I can hardly believe 2010 is almost over! 2010 has been a crazy year for me (and Happy Herbivore)...but mostly filled with wonderful events, opportunities and new friends!

At the start of the year, I was just finishing up the recipes in my cookbook (which will finally be hitting the shelves in less than a month!) It doesn't really feel like it was that long …
