3 years

Take a seat, pour yourself a cup of coffee (or tea), and grab a piece of cake - Better than Coffee turns 3 today! I wish I could share a piece of cake with all of you around the world. Through this blog I've made some amazing connections, met awesome bloggers-turned-friends (and am planning on meeting at least 3 this year!), and I've been able to chronicle my life with all of its ups, downs, simple smiles and random moments.

Some of my fave blog posts on here from the last 3 years include . . . writing a letter to my body and learning to appreciate it; professing my love for Serendipity and questioning fate/destiny; ranting and raving about public transportation and telling the story of how The Boy and I met; wishing on Wednesdays about different places I'd love to go (Antigua is still a goal!); things that help me when I'm psycho crazy, probably the weirdest-titled list I've made; raving about the best concert ever, seeing MUSE in March 2010; looking back at random ways to spend a weekend, complete with mosquito sunglasses; admitting that you are all better than coffee; looking at a diary entry from when I was 7 years old (I should do this again haha); sharing my recipe on tiramisu; starting my postcard project (it's coming back!); going to Vancouver for the first time to visit my sister and meet Kym for the first time(!); talking about my groundhog week around my birthday; looking back on the year 2010; the beauty and wonderment of being a tourist in your own city; getting into teachers college(!!!): my second trip to Vancouver for my sister's wedding(!!); an amazing weekend in Markham and days to remember; finally fulfilling my dream of a month in Europe and reminiscing about it (I need to share more photos!); bringing back childhood memories by dressing up as Misty for Halloween; and talking about just a few of my favourite things.

I'll admit that I've neglected this blog from time to time but I could never let it go in the sense that I love having a place where I can talk about that great journey of life (cheesy!), have a place where I can rant and ramble and smile, and talk with online people that I wish I could have over for a movie/games night in with a ton of good food. Basically, I just want to give a huge:

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

Thank you for following, thank you for commenting, thank you for creeping, thank you for all the friendships made and random conversations that make my day!

You all deserve your own personal cake :)

Hopefully this blog will go on for at least another three years, and I would love it if you were all along for the ride! But 'til then: what's your favourite kind of dessert? Because I'm itching to bake!
