An official “welcome back” to everyone!  And merci beaucoup to Virginia for starting us up with that meaty must-read roundup yesterday.

So before I went under for the break, I had asked each of our bloggers to chose her favorite post from 2008.  Ordered chronologically, I’m pleased to present….(drumroll)….The First-Ever Best of GWP 2008!
