2016: What a Ride!

December 31, 2016 by Stella

Spread the love
        

Friends, we have come to the end of another year. 2016 was such a roller coaster year, as I have never experienced before: from the loss of SEVERAL beloved cultural icons to a surreal and globally embarrassing American Presidential election.

I created this blog as a way to share my experiences with you, and those who may appreciate some of the lessons I have learned. Without your support and encouragement, I would not have been able to complete my first year working on my personal blog. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and let’s head into 2017 filled with Hope and Love for each other and the future.

Enjoy my 2016 Album of memories:

Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/12/30/medieval-times-delicious-dinner-epic-entertainment-ages-medievaltimes/
US Family Guide [http://www.usfamilyguide.com/] provided my family with the opportunity to attend one of the dinner performances, and we had an unforgettable night.

Giveaways

Throughout the year, I have offered a few Giveaways, and will continue to keep having something available for everyone to win.

Netflix
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/12/23/diy-trollhunters-battle-armor-sword-trollhunters/
Netflix has been a large part of my weekly routine since its beginning back in 1997. I am still tickled every time my email chimes with another Netflix program to share with you! The clips and peeks are so fun to check out.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story L to R: Cassian Andor (Diego Luna), Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) and K-2SO (Alan Tudyk) Ph: Jonathan Olley © 2016 Lucasfilm Ltd. All Rights Reserved.

Disney
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/12/16/rogue-one-introducing-jyn-erso-featurette-rogueone/
I adore working with Disney, and being able to share the latest entertainment news from the front-lines of: Walt Disney Studios, Marvel Studios and DreamWorks Pictures. I am such a movie geek that this gig is a dream-come-true. Thanks Walt!
Also, how cool are all the exclusives, crafts, coloring sheets and activities pages?

Harry Potter™ Film Concert Series
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/09/02/experience-magic-harry-potter-film-concert-series/
Harry Potter is one my top favorite books, and the movies enhanced J.K. Rowling’s incredible wizarding world. Being invited to experience the magnificent film concert AND interview the conductor was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Movie&Program Reviews
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/12/15/kid-review-lego-star-wars-freemaker-adventures-complete-season-one-rated-g-starwars/
Choosing the best entertainment for my daughter was very important to my husband and me during her childhood. Now that she is a pre-teen, she is able to make wiser choices – but occasionally still needs us to check things out that may be too risque or horrific for her palette. I strive to create spoiler-free reviews for you to make the best decisions for your family on Movie and Program content.

Recipes
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/05/22/recipe-quickeasy-bulgoogi-korean-beef-bowl/
Being a foodie, I am constantly stalking friend’s social media for inspiration and curiosity. I hope you have been enjoying my recipes.

Tributes
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/01/14/farewell-to-another-true-thespian-alan-rickman/
2016 saw an devastating number of loss in the entertainment world. I feel blessed to have known people through their artwork, and be able to express my appreciation for them in a blog post.

Product Reviews
My blog allows me to contact companies and request product reviews.
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/01/06/finominal-ocea-creations-mertail-oceacreations/
I was able to interview the creator of the Ocea Mermaid Tails, and learn how he engineered this incredible swimming device. It was such a blast to be able to help get the word out, and this post was one of my biggest views on YouTube: 177!

Emotional Health and Wellness
https://accordingtostella.com/2016/01/10/emotional-healing-maintenance-essential-oils/
