Traditions

Valentines Day is approaching and I'm not ready.  The last few weeks have been busy.  Between church stuff and helping with lots of extra after school home work...poor Thomas he's preparing for the FCATS (boooooo!)  I'm behind on my plans for the day of LOVE!  We usually make sour cream cut out cookies that get frosted.  They are delicious and remind me of the cookies that someones mom brought to the valentines party at school.  I loved the colorful cards and candy...but my favorite memory hands down has been that yummy homemade hart shaped cookie that seemed to show up year after year.  This is one tradition that no mater how busy I get, we won't be skipping.  And then there is the family valentines meal...that I'll cook.  I'm going to try something fancy...if time doesn't get away from me again.






At least my pot rack feels like one giant Valentine card that says "I LOVE YOU" to the ones I love most!  Wish me luck on the fancy meal...any suggestions?

  1. Love the gilded wings....and all the other Valentine goodies. I didn't put mine up this year. Taking down Christmas put me in a bad mood. I think I had better break it out for the next few days and get into the loving spirit of things.
    Oh, and YES! I will be making the cookies as well. Don't forget the juju hearts!
