I love the beginning of the year. I always take the time to go through everything online and get rid of a ton of stuff I don't need. Bookmarks to recipes that I marked months ago and don't know what I was even thinking. Deleting links to blogs that I don't really read. Deleting Facebook friends who I don't interact with or care to interact with. Unliking pages on Facebook so they don't creep up on my newsfeed all the time. Unsubscribing from lots of newsletter emails so that my inbox is clean. Deleting accounts on various websites so I don't waste so much time there. This year in particular is that true because I entered a ton of contests to win sweet prizes, and most of the time to enter those contests you have to "like" or "follow" a website, and sometimes I don't care about those websites, I'm just in it for the prizes. I figure if I get rid of all of those unnecessary things I won't waste as much time at my computer because I won't be sifting through things I don't care about, it will take me about 3 seconds to see what blogs have been updated, and about 1 minute to go through my Facebook newsfeed to see if there is anything new to read.
I love a good fresh start. That's also why I changed the blog around a bit. I'm still looking for a different picture for the top, but most of my pictures are on our Macbook, and I need Chris to go back to work so I'll have easier access to the Macbook.
And with that, I must go make a quadruple batch of Buttermilk Waffles from ATK because we've got some friends coming over for a Waffle and Wii party!

Fresh starts are kind of nice aren't they? And a waffle and wii party sounds like a lot of fun! And since you are involved, I know its fun.
100% agree with Megan. Waffle and Wii sounds like a BLAST. Perhaps I should take a page or two from your blog and purge some icky stuff from my computer files!!!
