HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!


Hope you are all having a wonderful Valentines Day!!!
I baked this afternoon, and am now waiting for my Valentine to come home with dinner. He had to work late tonite, so we will be eating take out at home. Thats fine with me. Greek food is delicious!
I made these sugar cookies this afternoon, and had a lightbulb moment! I never knew that you could brush the baked and cooled cookie with a bit of corn syrup to make the sprinkles stick really well. Am I the only one that never knew this?? Duh....

Dont they look pretty on my vintage desert tray? It was my Grandmas. It has a sticker on the bottom that says its from Occupied Japan. This baby is old~


Next up- some brownies made from scratch. They are Caramel and Sea Salt Brownies. I have seen so many recipes with this combination, and being the salt-a-holic that I am, had to try it. Although there is just a very little bit sprinkled on. It looks like more in the closeups. They smell divine!


I had to leave 2 of them plain~ as my sweet girlie is a purist when it comes to her desserts! Ill let ya know how they taste after I eat my dinner.

Here is a photo of some of my Valentine creations. More on those tomorrow~ my dinner is here now!
Many thanks for stopping by...

YUM! I want the brownie recipe, too please! And no, I did not know that trick to get sprinkles to stick! Hope dinner was as good at mine (despite the conversation topic)!
