garlic mushroom tortellini

meatless wednesday???

We made this for our Valentine's dinner last week.

because there's nothing less romantic than waiting hours to be seated at a restaurant and then herded in to eat some fancy overpriced special.

ah!  romantico!

recipe here.

love hangover

yesterday was Valentine's Day... just in case you forgot.

We don't really go all out for V-day and we didn't really plan on celebrating it, but I had a little pocket of time yesterday afternoon so I made some nutella rice krispies treats and cut them out like hearts.

Mister could live in a house of these things and he'd probably eat the walls down and be homeless.

We also got a nice treat from our new culinary school friend...

orange chiffon cake.

score.

she's going to make me fat.

DIY felt heart clip

ah... in the spirit of Valentine's day and all things heart-shaped, I've decided to give a hearty DIY.

cut out 2 felt hearts.

I did this freehanded, but if your freehanded heart is wonky, click here.

using a contrasting thread color, sew your hearts together.

it should now look like this.

bust out your hot glue and a clip.

glue clip on diagonally... or however you like.

I like diagonal.

boom.

clip it on.

it would be a super cool hair clip, too!

happy february!!

My awesome friend Amanda (who kinda needs to update her blog... just sayin') invited me over the other night and we made heart wreaths.

don't judge the lopsided heart... he needs love, too.

Amanda is the scrapbook paper queen.  I thought I had a lot.  She wins.

good valentimes...

ok so, Valentine's Day came and went. It was a mediocre day I guess... I didn't get to take a good long nap like I had hoped for but I did get a chance to go to Whole Foods and spend a ton of money on ingredients for my all natural, white flour-free, vegetarian pizza!!!....

yum yum to my tum tum!!

David seemed to like it... and my camera died right after my delectable pizza picture! So this is my delicious memory of V-day! That and David's leftover garlic breath... mmmmm!!
