December 1 Trip. What was your best trip in 2009? I only went one place several times all year: Estes Park Colorado. My favorite place in the whole world. My spiritual home. Rocky Mountain National Park, elk bugeling and butting heads, golden aspens, gorgeous weather. HEAVEN!
December 2 Restaurant moment. Share the best restaurant experience you had this year. Who was there? What made it amazing? What taste stands out in your mind? Dinner with my hubby at Dunraven Inn in Estes Park. YUMMY giant sea scallops in a to die for wine sauce! YUM! My mouth is watering at 7 am just remembering!
December 3 Article. What's an article that you read that blew you away? That you shared with all your friends. That you Delicious'd and reference throughout the year. Hmmmmm. Read so many, hard to select one. I always love reading Martha Beck’s article’s in O magazine.
December 4 Book. What book - fiction or non - touched you? Where were you when you read it? Have you bought and given away multiple copies?
I read a lot! Both Julie Buxbaum and Katherine Center had new books come out and I loved them. I also read Harlan Coben, Lee Child and John Sandford mysteries and they were all excellent. My fave nonfiction book was Brene’ Brown’s book . That's all I can think of before coffee!
December 5 Night out. Did you have a night out with friends or a loved one that rocked your world? Who was there? What was the highlight of the night? I read my poems at a poetry reading at a local winery. My husband and I went out for ice cream after and it was just like a date. We have been married 29 years! The atmosphere at the reading was so supportive and romantic. We also had a couple very romantic dinners this year at the above Dunraven Inn!
December 6 Workshop or conference. Was there a conference or workshop you attended that was especially beneficial? Where was it? What did you learn? I attended a workshop on line on PNN by Brene’ Brown on being authentic and met so many cool women!!! It was growth inducing and supportive!
December 7 Blog find of the year. That gem of a blog you can't believe you didn't know about until this year. Brene’s Brown’s Ordinary Courage! She is a true gem!
Yay! So glad to be on your fiction list for 2009!! Happy December! Warmly, Katherine

So interesting. A nice way to review the year. I think my best "trip" this year has been going within -- paying more attention to my dream life. The book I bought multiple copies of this year is "Give it All, Give it Now" by Annie Dillard and Sam Fink. Favorite night out? One of several on a quilt on the ground gazing at the Milky Way, and laughing with a loved one. Fun to think about the year this way, Deb. Thanks!
