Top 10 Posts of 2015
It’s always great to look back and see the progress made in different areas of life. I was encouraged as I looked back at the posts from 2015 and to see the growth as a person, in writing and photography. I found it interesting to see which posts did the best. I thought it might be all recipes, so I was surprised to see some money posts crept up to the top.
So there are two ways to do present this. One is just looking at posts that were only written in 2015. And then there are the posts that have been circulating for a few years. No surprise that the posts with the most traffic have been hanging around the longest, so we have two lists.
Top 10 Posts Written in 2015
- Double Chocolate Banana Breakfast Muffins. Moist, chocolatey, dairy-free using coconut oil, and healthy. What’s not to love?
