What I accomplished in 2010:

  • Went almost completely caffeine free. (Sure I’ve had some accidental slip ups here and there, and yes, I still enjoy chocolate, but my coffee habits are strictly decaffeinated.)
  • Designed the Dutchmill Garden and Brooklyn Contra logos.
  • Became interested in floral design. 
  • Developed a more secure sense of my styling/prop mistress abilities.
  • Rounded up fifty bakeries and helped to raise near 50K for pediatric cancer research via a giant bake sale in conjunction with Cookies for Kids’ Cancer, OXO, and Glad
  • Did the Warrior Dash. (ha!!!)
  • Learned to humanely lobotomize a lobster (via classes at ICE), prior to boiling. 
  • Realized quiet holidays at home are sometimes best.

What I aim to accomplish in 2011:

  • Take some proper floral design classes.
  • Get a handle on my finances. (Savings account…what savings account?)
  • Get fit! I’d like to work my way up to running the Brooklyn half-marathon come May…and maybe shed a few pounds in the meantime.
  • Start resin casting gaudy rings and bangles.
  • Grow my hair out really long.
  • Travel parts of Europe (after my recent passport snafu).
