On Fridays, I will be posting "Food for Thought". These topics can range from anything regarding food like showing caloric values on restaurant menus like California does to a motivational quote that has made me think or sharing updates. I'm very excited for this expansion! COMPLETED! Although I didn't really start posting regularly until later in the year. At least I did start, and I will continue in 2014.
Secondly, I have re-vamped my Spice It UP!!! series; the last week of the month, I will be featuring a spice or ingredient and linking it to recipes that I have made. COMPLETED! I posted these on the first/first week of the month, but no matter. I did miss two months last year. If anyone has any suggestions for topics, I'm all ears! I will continue this in 2014.
I will also be concentrating more on actual meals. I realized that I have done mostly desserts which although delicious, definitely contributed to my clothes feeling a bit snug at the moment. COMPLETED! I believe that I have been very good about staying away from desserts and focusing more on meals. In fact, it helped greatly that I began to utilize my crock-pot more than ever before. I will continue this in 2014.
I will be limiting myself to two dessert recipes a month that have healthy nutritional value (yes--chocolate has nutritional value!) for my waistline and yours! COMPLETED! I have noticed that I am much more selective in what I make for desserts since I don't make as many. I will continue this in 2014.
I will be maintaining a consistent posting schedule of at least 3 posts per week, typically Monday, Wednesday, and Friday barring holidays. COMPLETED! I have actually increased my posting to 5 days a week (whew!). I will continue this in 2014.
I am so happy with how 2013 has seen this blog grow! I have been thinking long and hard about 2014. I am happy with my posts and their frequency so now is the time to work on the details!
2014 Goals for Girl Eats World
- Work on my food photography
- Grow my blog's followers
- Guest post and host some guest posters! (email me at girleatsworld1@yahoo.com if you are interested!)
On a personal note, I think this year I will be focusing on my relationships--all of them! I was so shocked to learn recently that two members of my family are DEATHLY afraid of heights. I have known one all of my life, and the other a good part of my life. How could I not know that? Plus my brother is coming home this year (WOOT!) which will be exciting because my family has never lived so close together. I am excited for the fun and adventures that we will have!
What are your goals for 2014? I'd love to hear them!
