Do any of the rest of you have kids that wait till 8:00 at night to tell you they have a project due the very next morning? Happens at our house waaaay more often than it should! Makes me want to beat people. Not really. Well maybe a little. Last year on February 13th, my [...]
I'm a little scared to type this because I don't want to jinx us, but our family has now been healthy for FIVE whole days. Hallelujah! Valentine's Day is right around the corner, and with all the sickness, I haven't even pulled out my Valentines Day decorations. Every spare second I've had has been spent [...]
I had great plans for decorating for Valentines Day this year. But sub-zero temperatures, frozen pipes, a killer cold/flu that hit all of us, and two rounds of stomach flu have kind of put a damper in my plans. I sure hope 2013 takes a turn for the better, and soon! I'm pretty sure I'm [...]

What boy gets thrilled about pink hearts and ruffles? I know mine don't. But throw in some candy, and Valentines Day becomes much more fun! This matching [...]

I am one of those crazy moms that likes to come up with creative Valentine's for my boys to take to school for their classmates. I think we have only bought Valentine's from a box one time. My boys are not really into making crafts (duh), but if candy is involved I can actually twist [...]
I actually made these cute little shortbread cookies a few months ago, but after I got them all finished I thought they would be perfect for Valentine's Day. So I waited until now to share the recipe. They are not quite as decadent as the Brownie Trifle or the Chocolate Lava Cake, but they are [...]
