I had originally planned to post this on New Year’s Eve, but I was a bit under the weather that day and did not get a chance to finish writing this.  K and I wish all our readers a very happy new year!  -m

Keeping with tradition, we are pulling together a list of our top 10 favorite posts from 2013.  It was a great year for both of us, but we are also looking forwards to the fresh start that the New Year always brings.  Here are each of our top 5 posts:

M’s Goals for 2013

Posted by 2 Sisters 2 Cities on January 3, 2013

goals for 2013

It’s now an annual tradition to share my goals for the year on this blog (Here were my goals for 2010 and 2012…apparently having a newborn baby made me less goal-oriented in 2011.)  Instead of drafting lofty resolutions, I always like to break it down into smaller goals that I’m more likely to accomplish throughout the year.  I don’t always follow up on all of them, but it’s nice to sit down and prioritize how I want to focus my life.  Here are some of my goals for 2013:

  • Read 26 books in 2013.  Last year, I set 26 books as my Goodreads 2012 reading challenge number, but I fell short by 14 books…oops.  I’m hoping to try to reach this challenge this year by skipping the tv more often each evening and reading instead.
  • Try yoga again.  Since moving to the ‘burbs, I haven’t belonged to a gym or any kind of fitness studio.  I recently bought a 10-pack of yoga classes through one of those group coupon deals and I’m hoping to incorporate more fitness into my weekly schedule.
  • Focus on eating more “real” breakfasts and lunches.  I’m pretty good at making a “real” dinner each night for our family, but often I find myself just grabbing whatever throughout the day whenever I’m hungry.  I made this Greek Veggie Wrap yesterday for lunch and it was so good (and healthy!)  I’m hoping to try a lot more smoothie recipes for breakfast as well.
  • Keep organizing!  Even though we have lived in our home for over a year now, I still find there are spots that I haven’t touched since I initially unpacked them.  I’m planning on doing some major basement reorganizing this winter and some garage projects this spring when it starts to warm up a bit.
  • Grow 2 Sisters 2 Cities.  While K and I are very proud how much our little blog has grown in the past few years, we want to keep growing and improving it every day.  I want to try many new recipes this year and also continue to work on my food photography and editing skills.

What are you hoping to accomplish in this upcoming year?
