Snatches of Valentine's Day

Since I was home with just the Littles on Sunday morning, I was able to sneak-make these cookies for all my Valentine's and hide them away up in the cupboard!  I brought them out at the end of lunch-
Super fun-Lizzy said, "OH MOM!!!  THEY'RE SO BEAUTIFUL!!!"  She melted MY heart! 

Sunday after church we went to the Masella Family's home for yummy lunch.
This is what I brought!  I still use the Butter Cookie recipe my mom and I have always made
and the frosting is my favorite vanilla I usually put on cakes.

Whipped up my first ever Biscotti, too.  Double chocolate chip to be exact!!  They were delish!
I got them on a skinny taste blog and they are only 3 points each!
 

Gaberz lovin' on his "D-D" after scarfing down his "G" cookie-
now how did he get ahold of that way up there?

The remnants of pink milk.  The kids much prefer this over the green milk of St. Patrick's Day!

Lizzy has been eyeing this Elly at Publix for 2 weeks now.
"Sunshine" made it home from the store with the flower-delivery man and Lizzy forked over her allowance for it :-) 

This lovely garland arrived in a Valentine Care package from the cousins on the other side of the state :-)   My favorite part is that it said "EW LOVE YOU"  Perfect!  Reminds me of the bookmark I keep from my nephew that says "Ant Jill" 

The flowers that Marc gave me.  I love the hearts!!
