I’ve nothing profound from a writing perspective to share, but with all the focus on love today, I thought I’d give you a peek at the Valentine goodies I made for my hubby.
I’m not a creative cook — nothing like Ruth Logan Herne at her Yankee-Belle Cafe (go check out the guest post on brining a romantic turkey… I kid you not!) — so he doesn’t get anything fancy. But since I seldom bake at all any more, his sweet tooth should be happy with these.
Of course a little chocolate (or a lot) is imperative today, don’t you agree? I cut generous hearts out of a pan of brownies, and afterwards made the still-warm leftover bits into balls and rolled them in sugar, too. Extra yummy bite-sized goodies. (What? You didn’t expect I wouldn’t sample them, did you? Be reasonable. We’re talking chocolate here!)
Wishing you an abundance of love in your life today … from friends, from family, and best of all, from God.
♥ Happy Valentine’s Day! ♥

MUSINGS 
I wish you could make some of those to send here. 🙂 Both my husband and father would enjoy them.
God bless you in His love.
Oh wow! My husband should be so lucky! Happy Valentine’s Day, Carol. 🙂
Carol, I was determined to resist chocolate today. You temp me beyond the limits with the brownie bits 🙂 I think I’ll go have a chunk of something luscious, milky and decadent. Happy Valentine 🙂
I love brownies and super-sized ones make my heart go pitter patter!
First thing this morning, I received a small teddy bear and a lovely card. Then my DH drove me into the city. We did some shopping, shared a Costco Polish hotdog, picked up some supplies, shared a banana split, then went shopping for paint. Sounds mundane, but it was wonderful.
Love your creativity, Carol. I bet Bob loved it.
Happy Valentine’s day to you as well Carol. The heart shaped brownie looks soooo good! XO
Happy Valentine’s Day to all of you! And, Joylene… no matter how it was spent, a day together with our spouses is always a good day. I spent a lot of today driving back and forth from the airport with mine. All good.
