Day of Love & Sugar

I'm pretty sure I gained 5lbs over Valentine's weekend. Probably 4lbs of that I baked myself, I knew it wouldn't end well. First, Savanna and I made cake balls to take to work. Proud to say I didn't lick a single spoon in the process and only had one cake ball. I've only made chocolate cake balls before so I decided to try something new. So we made chocolate and strawberry ones. Everyone said the strawberry ones reminded them of Captain Crunch.

As a Valentines gift to my family, I passed out this:


For immediate relief of: Chocolate cravings, Lovesickness, Exam Pressure, Mild Anxiety & Extreme hunger.

Directions for use: Tear open wrapper, break off desired dosage and consume. Alternatively massage into the affected area. Repeat dosage as required until finished. If symptoms persist consult your local confectioner.

I thought it was hilarious. Every girl knows that about every 28 days you NEED some emergency chocolate. It's not a want, it's a need.

I like to make Jason some sort of heart shaped treat for Valentines day. I've done cookies and cake in the past. This year I made brownies and used a cookie cutter to make them hearts. I was stoked that it worked so well. I did lick the spoon while making these and ate about half the pan after. 


And lastly, Rachel made this super cute cake for Sunday dessert. I don't think she thought it was a awesome as we all did. I thought it was a really cute idea. She wrote everyones name in the frosting. Yeah, she makes my cake balls and brownies look like a preschooler made them. She's got skills.
