“Sweets” on a Cold Gloomy Day

Oh my gosh, yesterday was a really cold, rainy day!

So, I made cookies to warm our home.

I am not a good cook, that is why you do not see many recipes on my blog.

I am not a good baker either, but I do love to make simple heart shaped sugar cookies for Valentine’s Day.

They are not perfect, my icing sometimes is a bit drippy, and maybe a bit too hot pink!

But I found that if you wrap them in a cellophane bag, with a colorful ribbon, they look almost perfect!

Wrapped up they become a sweet treat for anyone you love.

Bakery heart cookies are over $1 each, and sometimes just not so fresh.

On Valentine’s Day, I like to put one on each plate at supper.

So cute!

Just an inexpensive way to say, “I Love You”!

Today I am going to try to catch my “mail lady” as she delivers on our street.  She has been off sick for a bit, and maybe a cookie will cheer her, get her through a long day.

We have become friendly over the years, just chit chatting at my mailbox.  Love her, she is so sweet, down to earth, and a very hard working person.

I love to put a cookie in my son’s work lunchbox as a surprise!  I know he will smile when he sees it!

A great treat with coffee, on his mid morning break.

We eat too many cookies in our house, but isn’t that what cookies are for?

Hope you are warming your home on these cold days, with love, and making heart cookies!

Hugs and kisses!
