Mini Chocolate Valentine Cakes

Mini Chocolate Valentine Cakes

On Saturday, we had hubby's family over for dinner.  I wanted something that I could make ahead of time and then put together at the last minute. These mini chocolate cakes were the ticket.

Over The Moon Linky Party

Welcome to Over The Moon Linky Party

Happy Sunday dear friends. I am so delighted that you stopped by.  I am still dealing with a bad wrist so if I don't respond to your comments, that's why. I can check out your posts, but it hurts to write. 

Can you believe that it is the last day in January? February is here tomorrow and that means Valentine's Day is coming. So I am giving you some great Valentine Day ideas. Of course many of them revolve around food. After all, Valentine's day calls for some decedent goodies. Hope you like my features this week. 

Well, I hope you have a great week ahead and I will be checking out your posts.

You're The Star - Home Feature Week

Welcome to You're The Star - Home Feature Week

Happy Monday! Can you believe that this is the last Monday in January? Where has this month gone? One thing I have noticed is that the days are getting longer. That makes me so excited. We are not getting dark until around 6:15. Longer days are coming and that makes me happy. I hate when it gets dark so early. Have you noticed that too?

I hope your week is a great one! Enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by.

Beadboard Valentine

Beadboard Valentine

You're The Star - Family Feature Week

Welcome to You're The Star - Family Feature Week

Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful week. Mine was nice. It is still a little cool here in central Florida. I am still helping my daughter get the last few areas of her outside painted. We finished it this weekend. All we have to do is power wash the patio out front and then she wants to stencil a pattern on it. So a little more painting and then a sealer. We need a little warmer weather for that. Then, I think we will be done. At least I hope so. 

How was your weekend? Any painting in your plans? We are probably the only ones doing that.
