Happy Valentine's Day!

Hope everyone has a super sweet day full of friends, family, love, smooches, and snuggles (single or taken, V-Day should be for everyone to be extra sweet and lovable)!

Yesterday Rorie and I made her Valentine's for her J/K class. I wrote the names of all the little people, and she wrote out her name. I was impressed, she was incredibly patient. Each classmate got 2 chocolate kisses and a heart shaped sucker. Ryan, Rorie and I then went to get groceries, picking up some goodies to make cupcakes. For fun, I quickly painted some hearts on our cheeks.



This time I didn't make them from scratch (which I am always so proud of when I do :P), but bought Betty Crocker cherry ones with whipped vanilla frosting, plus sprinkles.

OMNOM





I woke to a nice surprise this morning, what I thought of as my boyfriend being neglectful and ignoring me the last couple of days, was just him sneaking about putting together his own little V-Day surprise. Yay! I'm glad I didn't let my hormones get the better of me and get snippy. haha







We also bought Rorie some Valentine goodies that she opened before school this morning that she was super happy about.

Now tonight, my Mom will be having Rorie over for a visit (I'll be sending done a bunch of cupcakes and stuff for them) while Ryan and I go out on a date. We planned on go grab some chinese and spend the evening thrifting. Can't wait!

Valentine's Day

I wasn't really sure what I should post about first, but being as Valentine's Day is just around the corner, I thought I would make a little post about the fun stuff Rorie and I have been doing to celebrate the love!

Firstly, no Valentine's Day would be complete without sweet holiday treats. I made some chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing a couple of days ago, and needless to say, they're gone already. I used a basic recipe for both, and they turned out deliciously! I topped them with strawberry flavoured heart marshmallows and red sugar sprinkles.




Rorie and I decided to make a couple of cards for her Grandparents. She really loves to do arts and crafts, so it's always a fun time. We still have glitter all over the place! Lots of glitter, googly eyes, pipe cleaner, and special gems, and some paint. They turned out really cute.




I'll probably make another batch of cupcakes before V-Day. I've been thinking about making strawberry cupcakes. Yummy ^,^
