Valentine's Day is, for the most part, all about the food in our house the past few years.
We usually make an oversized batch of cupcakes, make our own valentine's cards, make sure there are clean & pressed red, pink & white shirts & sweaters for everyone the night before...
But this year? There just weren't enough hours.
Store bought cards and prepackaged Hershey Kiss packets to the rescue!
Isabelle & Sophie work diligently on their Valentine's...
Baz...not so much. He was a big fan of putting stickers on everything though...
Monkey...prepping for the sugar rush that school-wide Vday parties bring about each year.
Sunday saw Heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast, Heart-shaped grilled cheese and/or turkey sandwiches for lunch. Hey, if we're not using the cookie cutters for actual cookies this year, we've gotta get our quote of usage in for them!!!
V-day itself brought a lovely surprise... lunch at MacNivin's with Mr. Handsome...
Ohhhh, scotch eggs. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways...
AND... as if scotch eggs weren't enough to make me swoon? They were followed up by a movie night with CHEDDAR BACON POPCORN!!! Seriously? *le sigh* It's by the same guys that made Bacon Salt.
And, because some people (who will remain nameless) find the taste of cheddar bacon popcorn a bit much... we definitely also had kettle corn. Because if you're going to be a fatass on Valentine's Day? You might as well each have your own bag of microwave popcorn to complement your root beer sundaes and Blockbuster movie.
It could not have been more perfect.
