Happy 2023! 2022 was quite the eventful year at Tara’s Multicultural Table. We fit in some last minute bucket list California trips, then drove cross-country from Los Angeles to our new home in Northern Virginia.
It was also packed with some amazing food. Total views for the year were 1,945,743 with an average of 5,319 per day! The countries with the most visitors were the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa, Germany, New Zealand, Netherlands, Philippines, and France.
Thank you all so much for your support and I am excited to see what new recipes and travel 2023 brings.
