It’s usually around this time of year I have a look at what have been my most popular posts, and I’m usually always surprised. Posts I wrote years ago are still the top picks, although I have forgotten them over the years. It seems you guys haven’t! A couple of my all-time favourites made it, too.
FOOD
The top three food posts this year were also the top posts overall. All of them written pre-2014!

Bad Shit that Happened so I Complained About it On the Internet
This actually isn’t a category I set out to fill, but it seems my top posts of 2014 written in 2014, were actually these. They appeared to have hit a frustrated nerve with you!
How to Recover a Document Saved to Office 2011 Autorecovery.
That one time the computer lost my article, and I had to Google for half a day to get it back. Surprisingly popular with very, very grateful strangers.
That one time I got sick and bloody tired of my friend copping so much crap from an entitled and nasty audience. Seems lots of people felt the same way.
The One Blog Post the Whole Internet Needs to Read
Put down those smug avocados. And if you’re feeling a bit judged, be reminded of this. (Also wins for best reader comments of the year, there are some real corkers in this one!)
Food of 2014
Kid Food: Mini Yogurt Pancakes
Laura Bush’s Texas Governor’s Mansion Cowboy Cookies
Caramelised Apple and Cinnamon Scrolls
Do you have a favourite? I like Check Yo Self, that one I wrote about learning big life lessons and sorting out your priorities, and that one I wrote about burning all my food and wanting to punch half the world.

I am hoping the cheesy garlic potato bake will be my favourite as we are making it tonight with Boo’s Christmas present from Santa, the Vidalia Slice Wizard! HUZZAH!

Check yo self was good reading. Four of those Texas cookies to go with it would make it even better.
Maxabella says
Also got my hand up for Check Yoself. I like you lippy. Food also good (obvs). Merry new year to you, lovely! x
Karin @ CalmtoConniption says
Check Yoself of course but also gotta love the ol’ Avocado. So relatable.

Those veggie sausage rolls are brilliant so no wonder they continue to be a top post. Best wishes to you and your family for the new year – bring it on 2015
