We celebrated 3 years and 100 posts last weekend, by inviting our near and dear food lovers over for a meal, cooked in its entirety by me. Suffice to say that I’m not attempting such a feat again, well, not for a while a least! Here is a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has supported me and encouraged me to share this wonderful love for food with the world. Please keep supporting Joie De Vivre 🙂
