2016 Year in Review

One of my favorite past-times around New Year’s has always been watching the shows with the countdowns of the “best of” the previous year. That obsession has naturally flowed into my blogging, and each year I share the best of the last year, plus the best of the blog to date. 

Top Ten Posts of All Time

These are the stats on all of the posts on this blog compared to each other. Naturally, older posts have an advantage here since they have had a longer lifespan of opportunity to be viewed. This is the first year that the top ten didn’t change out–all of these were on the list last year. Some just traded spots.
