Happy Valentine's Day!
You may be surprised to learn that the girl who goes over-the-top in just about everything in life enjoys a more simple and subtle approach to Valentine's Day: a handful of pink, heart-shaped valentines adorning our walls and windows, homemade cards, cheesy Valentine surprises for the kids, and a big smooch for my main squeeze (who is taking me away for a night in two weeks . . . woohoo!). Top that off with the sugar cookies (gluten-free, of course) the boys and I plan on baking this morning, and I think we've got ourselves a pretty awesome Valentine's Day.
All the kids' treats have funny sayings on them like:
You're soda awesome! (the Coke)
You are one pop-ular kid! (the popcorn)
You are extra special! (pack of Extra gum)
You melt my heart! (the M&M's)
I found this idea on this blog, if you are looking for a quick, but cute Valentine's Day gift for your littles. Elliot is going to freak when he sees the pop and the popcorn! I think this day could possibly trump Christmas in his books.
What are your plans for Valentine's Day?
It's the one night a year when my husband cooks! :)
