Merry Christmas and happy new year! Thanks for going on this journey with us. My apologies for being MIA on this site and late in responding to your emails for the past few months. My husband and I moved from an apartment to a house, sprained a foot (mine), broke a foot (his) and switched jobs twice. And, we had a baby. It’s been a good year of life changes in our adopted city.

While I’ve lapsed in posting here, our Instagram account continues to be fairly active. Make sure you check out us out (@newinNOLA) for #newinNOLA tips and pictures of pretty houses, sunrises and, of course, food.

Hope you had a wonderful year. Here are the moments you liked best on our Instagram account (via #2015bestnine):
