Top 2011 Recipes + 2012 Thoughts

Well, we've reached the point to pull the proverbial plug on that old, wheezy 2011. Playing off of that hackneyed metaphor, Mother Time should be experiencing agonizing contractions at 5-minute intervals by now. 2012 is mercilessly writhing within that birth canal, itching to bring forth the Earth's eventual Mayan Calendar doom.

"But no," spouts NYE host Ryan Seacrest, "Mother Time shall not deliver 2012 until the world receives ample time to gape at my golden locks! Ogle my outfit! Wonder when Simon Cowell will approach with a british-y snide, cutting remark!"

Don't worry, Ryan. Lady Gaga will steal your thunder anyways. And probably your haircut. And possibly your trademark skinny suit and tie.

But without further ado, I present the College Culinarian's top recipes of 2011:
1.) Avocado Breakfast Quesadilla A solid #1 choice, friends.
2.) Slow-Cooker Smoked Pulled Pork Many piggies went to market for the number of hits this got.
3.) Spaghetti Carbonara for One Carbs comin' in hot for the #3 spot!

Happy 2012, everyone! And if you stumble upon the opportunity to get this tattoo, do it!, 'cause WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE NEXT DECEMBER!
