I sort of have a love hate thing with Valentine’s Day.
On the love side… Valentines recipes. The color pink, and lots of it. Sparkly things. Chocolate. Cute little school parties. Hearts. Valentine Peeps. Did I mention pink? So many sweet treats. The remote possibility of a trip to Melting Pot compliments of my husband, to celebrate Valentine’s Day and our anniversary which is a month later. THE COLOR PINK.
On the hate side… It is kind of a manufactured holiday. A dozen grocery store roses costing as much as a compact car. Knowing that in years to come those cute school parties will likely give way to tween and teen angst.
But let’s focus on the positive. TREATS! Valentines Recipes! Valentine’s Day has to have it’s own Bites From Other Blogs post. I already have a Pink Treats Bites From Other Blogs, but this one will accept other colors, as even I know that the whole world can’t be sparkly pink. Let’s start with my contributions…
