Day-O-Love














































Perfect PB "Love" Cookies

I used my mom's PB cookie recipe & added a little PIZAZZ with Butterfinger chocolate hearts! They were ABSOLUTELY DEVINE!
1 egg
½ c creamy PB
1 ¾ c flour
1 tsp soda
½ tsp. salt
½ c. sugar
½ c. brown sugar
2 TBSP milk
1 tsp. vanilla
½ c. Butter flavored Crisco
Mix wet ingredients. Mix dry ingredients. Combine. Bake 10 mins @ 350. Place candies in center of cookie once they are on cooling rack. Cookies should be chewy.

Frozen in Time

Soooo....our local Real Deals closed down :( big surprise. Nothing in Ellensburg lasts long. Anyhow-they were having a closeout sale last week and so Bryce & I grabbed some Hot Chocolate and perused the store together. We came away with this gem. The first time I looked at it I thought "3 clocks=my 3 favorite moments in time". We brought it home & out came the vinyl & my trusty Cricut. 
Viola! It's not the epitome of perfection, but I still love it.

Another Super Bowl

Twitter on his phone, 
Super Bowl on TV,
 no kids to be seen AND 
an entire platter of snacks to himself

 happy ME! ;)
This year I was completely overwhelmed so I consulted my friend Pinterest for some appetizer ideas:
BBQ Chicken & Sauteed Onion sandwiches
Taco Cups
Bacon wrapped baby red potato bites with Buffalo Dipping Sauce
 He was a pretty happy camper-though probably one of the only guys watching the game alone...such a homebody.
I sure love this guy.
