Valentine's Goodness

It's a really drizzly, gloomy kind of Valentine's Day, so I corralled my girls into a little cookie-baking session.  We made Linzer Cookies, which in the end, are really almost too pretty to eat.  If you want to get the recipe I used, check out my other, more highly-caloric blog - HERE.

Ben is out of town tonight (yes,it's a common theme in our casa), so we'll be rainchecking our Valentine's tomorrow.  He'll make it up to me by sitting through movie night of Breaking Dawn.  And not providing running commentary.
 It's a win-win, you see?

I'm sorry you are without your Cupid (but you are so lucky to have seen Breaking Dawn which only my 13-year-old son will see with me once out on DVD!). I too am without my +1 but am looking forward to opening a box of truffles and watching the incredibly romantic Downton Abbey tonight. Hope your delayed celebration is wonderful, Cynthia
