I am thrilled to let y'all know that The New York Times has just named The Happy Baker cookbook as one of the best of 2010. I'm like a proud momma and my child just won an Olympic Gold Medal.

If you had told me a couple years ago that I would write a cookbook, self- publish the book (in Canada), sell the US rights to a huge publishing company (Harlequin) and then The New York TImes would name it as one of the best of 2010 ... I would have told you to stop smokin' the funny stuff.

This has been quite the ride and I am glad I took the plunge changed my careers and just hoped this would all work out. So many doors are opening up now and I can't wait to share many other exciting news from Happy Baker headquarters.

Congrats to all the books that made the cut.
