Top Five for 2016

Our Good Life had a good year in 2016.  As I reflected on the work I did and what you, the readers of this blog liked, it seems that you are as eclectic as me, and that makes me very happy.  In no particular order, I give to you the most popular posts of the year!





This recipe is on over 600 boards in Pinterest.  This is a solid recipe that hit at the perfect time, Easter, when people are planning their Easter breakfast meals.  Delicious, too.


This is my area of personal expertise and one of my life's passions.  School has always been a place where I could serve the children of my community and I will continue to do so, even though I am retired.  


The place where I live is so beautiful that I love to share it with the world.  I am glad you like it, too!

Such a retro dish!  My mom made this for my family many times while I was growing up.  So happy to share it with you again!

This is my top pin of the year as well.  This sweet, easy craft that helps serve our bee population sure got a lot of attention and I am glad.  Our bees deserve it!

I find it very fitting that the things I enjoy writing about are represented in your favorites.  Cooking, school, gardening and home decor.  You can certainly be assured that I will continue to write about these things in 2017 plus maybe a few new topics that I am starting to love:  organizing, hand lettering and being the best I can be.  I hope you come along for the ride!
