Our Valentine's Recap 2014 {Last Year}

That was my first time making the homemade gummi snacks..
Boy did I learn some things haha BUT I've made them twice since.. 
They are VERY good ... but not the healthiest I can tell you that.. there are now recipes that include fruit purees etc that you can use that are more healthy.. this recipe contains A LOT of sugar.. like.. 3 cups...
But if you don't mind that.. they are soooo good.. lol.
I have a serious addiction to sugar.. so I don't mind it one bit..
The recipe makes A TON though so now I cut it in half... even after cutting it in half I still have candy for like a month... totally not complaining though.. honestly.
If you do want the recipe you can find it HERE.
The other snacks.. I made roll out chocolate chip cookies and added some food coloring they did come out pink =) 
And I also put some strawberry yogurt in my heart mold and made some frozen yogurt snacks. Those were pretty fantastic!!
There's lots of options for heart/valentines themed foods...
These are just the ones we made last year..
I have made some new things this year!!!
Can't wait to share them with you all!!!

I just think it's nice to look back and see what I've accomplished..
Where I've come from and what we're doing now..
It's definitely awesome =) 
I hope you guys enjoyed the recap.. 
And I hope everyone enjoys the Valentine's week!!!!
I know I will!!
I'm going to be crafting and baking up all kinds of stuff!!
Be sure to follow me around on FB & INSTAGRAM.
Much love

So last year we had the heart shaped eggs.. 
I have a whole set of the heart shaped pans!! I love hearts so much!! lol.
And then I did the bacon hearts.. not perfect but you get the gist anyway..
And of course cereal with heart shaped bananas!
Hubby got a little giggle and he knew that I took the extra effort to show him some love =)

We also did lots of Valentine's Crafts last year..

Believe it or not I still have the "nerdy Valentines" I've actually recycled them..

Anyway.. if you would like to print your own.. you can find them HERE.
That site also has TONS of amazing links for things for Valentines...
It's pretty phenomenal.
As for the painting.. we actually use a toilet paper roll and rubber bands and made some heart stamps.. 
Easy, fun, frugal!!
