Happy first birthday blog of mine.

I wasn't sure whether you'd still be here after all this time, but it seems like you have become part of my life now and even though I don't have the time to visit you every day and bring you something new, I'd still like to keep you around. Is that OK with you?

I love spending time with you, looking through the posts of this last year together, chuckling at some of them, remembering writing them. What a great way you have proved to be to document my thoughts, to pay tribute to my family.

It's through you that I have met so many wonderful people, a lot of whom have now become very good friends of you and me. Oh, don't be upset dear blog, I'm sure they like us both equally.

I do have a little present for you. A little indulgence (although I have to give Martha Steward credit for the picture).

So go ahead and have some chocolate on me, 'cuz it's my blog's birthday and we all deserve to be in Chocolate Heaven at least once a year. Enjoy!
