Happy Valentine's Day





Every year since my friends Cori, Andy and their daughter Evelyn moved to TX, I have taken Evelyn for a day and helped her make Valentine's for her mom and dad. This year we decided to make cookies and decorate them. Again, another baking adveture - what was I thinking? We really did have fun though :-) She decorated a box for each of them to put the cookies in.
On a side note, I saw something on TV that showed melting peppermints and using them as a garnish. They are so cute because they are striped on the edges. I did about 3 at a time on parchment paper on a cookie sheet and then used a knife to shape them while they were hot into hearts.
Tonight I am making chocolate fondue (will post pics later) and will have these as one of the dippers.

Happy Cooking...
