    Here are the Top 10 Posts of 2016 on the Meatloaf and Melodrama blog.  Number one still surprises me. Can you guess what it is?

    top-10-most-popular-posts-from-2016-on-the-blog

    It's been a little quiet on the blog lately, but after the hectic holiday season, I like to take some time off to spend with the kiddos and just kind of decompress. We pretty much exist on holiday leftovers after Christmas, anyway.

    But at the end of the year, I like to take a little stroll down memory lane and revisit my most popular blog posts from the last 12 months. These are the ones published during the current year that received the most traffic. I have some posts from previous years that are still popular, but right now, we're talking about posts from 2016 -- what a year!

    I started out with number 10 and moved down to number one. Then, I included my most popular posts at the end, just for fun!

    Top 10 Posts of 2016

    Skinny Monkey Breakfast Smoothie -- This is one of the first posts I did this year, and being healthy, it took right off!

    Eggnog Pie - This holiday dessert is from two years ago, but it's number two overall, thanks to holiday traffic.

    Peppermint Vanilla Sugar Scrub - This sugar scrub recipe is from last year, but it's number one overall, again, thanks to lots of traffic during the holidays and pretty much throughout the year. I guess everyone loves homemade bath and body products!

    And there you have it, friends -- the top 10 posts from 2016. Thank you SO much for your support! I definitely couldn't have done it without you!
