Ringing in the New Year in Style!

Well Goodbye 2011, Hello 2012 and we can say we’re going to do a lot of things but right now I’ve decided to just do one day at a time and be better then I was before!  Well it’s what I’m going with right now, stop giggling and just let me live in a little bliss for today .. hehe!
My friend had us over to her house for a little get together for the count down and I made a few things to share.  I can never go to a party empty handed.
I took this Apple Pie Cucake and tweaked it a bit to include Sparkling Apple Cider.  I thought it was perfect for the new year!

Then I had to make some dips. The first dip was a Weight Watcher Feta & Spinach Dip.

  2. I shouldn't be looking at food posts since I am living on yogurt, pudding, and milkshakes right now, but everything looks delish, especially those cupcakes! Have a wonderful 2012!

  3. Your cupcakes look beautiful! I really need to try the weight watcher's hot artichoke dip. I've heard nothing but good things about that recipe. Maybe I'll put it together for our next get together.

  4. I need to try that feta & spinach dip! We tried a few healthier apps for NYE and this one would have been a great addition! Maybe for Super Bowl? Happy New Year!

  6. Those cupcakes sound wonderful. I am just now getting rid of all of my holiday goodies so I will have to put them on the back burner for awhile.

    I fixed ham 'n' beans and cornbread for the new year. New Year's Eve I was in bed by 10:30PM.

  12. Honestly you are like my mummy idol for 2012. You are so imaginative and creative with food etc. I need to be more of a domestic goddess and cook better, healthier foods (from scratch not the freezer lol).

    I went to Wales for NYE to stay with fam. Was fun but I missed having it at my house. I was glad of the break as I had hosted Christmas by myself this year and was lovely catching up with the family. Didn't like the 5 hour drive mind you lol. Take care xx
