Wishing all our

 Family & Friends a 

Happy Valentines Day!! 

 

We celebrated our Valentine’s Day yesterday with a modest exchange of treats, and our traditional homemade Valentines dinner of grilled steak and broccoli, steamed lobster tails, Cesar salad, and toasted ciabatta bread


 Valentine’s Day this year is filled with Madison's first soccer practice, Michael's final basketball practice and a math exam for me!! Thank goodness I have such an incredible spouse, and the kids have such a committed father to lend a hand with the additional duties. 


Perfect fit for my "Prince Charming" 


Fun, delicious V-day treat for the little ones, that even the big kids (aka hubbies) like....love too!

Great in a bag with a cute saying; "You're cute as a button"
 What you'll need:
  • square pretzels
  • Hershey's Hugs or Kisses 
  • plain M&Ms

Directions:
Preheat oven to 200°.  (If your oven runs hot you may want to turn the temp down to 170°.)
Bake for 4-5 minutes until the chocolate is shiny and soft (but NOT melting - they should still hold their shape).  
Carefully place an M&M in the center of each hug and press it down to spread the chocolate.  
Allow to cool completely (a few minutes in the fridge works perfectly) and enjoy!
 

Now I leave you with pictures of the little ones....
