C'est l'amour! Bisou Bisou! Je t'aime! I just want to speak French all day today! The most romantic city in the world and I am half a world away. Oh well.
The past few years, Adam - the Fiance - and I have just stayed in and I have cooked a nice meal for us since V-Day fell on a week day. And this year we decided to stick to the same routine. HAH!
I am going to cook us a nice dinner, have some wine, and of course it wouldn't be complete without DESSERT!
My mom asked me to help make some special cookies for my little brother and sister's school valentine's. I LOVED Valentine's day because in school you got just as much candy and junk food AND you got to have a class party which was THE BEST DAY EVER. Haha. Well I really got in the baking spirit this holiday and decided to try out some new techniques with cookies and cake pops.

| Heart Shaped Cake Balls |
I tried to get these little guys above on a cake pop stick but some of them were too narrow and broke, so I decided to make cake pop balls instead and they are just as good! So if you don't want to run to the store just melt chocolate, throw them in and voila!
 |
| Disco Dust Covered Cake Pops |
Upside down cake pops are a very pretty touch to any dessert table. Personally, I still like mine in mason jars. Like below.

| Valentine's Day Cake Pops |
I am going to have to call this one I think my "signature design" it is my favorite, and it looks great with non- pareil sprinkles.
 |
| Be My Valentine? |
 |
| Swirls |
 |
| I love you! |
Above is the only heart shaped cake pop I could get on a stick, so he is extra special.
 |
| Glitter Cake Pops |
This is kind of my new obsession, glitter cake pops. Not going to lie though, they can make quite a mess! So you have been warned!
 |
| Whooo loves you? |
I do! That whooo! Owl love you forever! I just love owls and if you know me, you know why. Hoot Hoot!
 |
| Heart Cookies |
These are the cookies I made for my little brother and sister's classroom valentines. We then packaged them and I totally forgot to take a picture! rats!
 |
| 90's anyone? |
 |
| The above cookie we packaged and saved for all the kids that had crushes on my bro and sis OR who they have a crush on. haha. |
 |
| Kiss, Hug and Love |
 |
| Ruffle Cookies |
I have been wanting to learn how to make ruffle cookies for so long!! I just have been to lazy to attempt and do it. To do this you need a Wilton 104 tip and I had to google youtube videos to find a tutorial to teach me. I have to say that it only took my like 2 mess ups before I finally figure it out and I LOVE them!

| Rose Petal Cookies |
 |
| Fluffy Hearts |
Not going to lie, I was testing out these cookies designs as a possible option for my wedding :)
Happy Valentine's Day/weekend everyone! And for those of you not with someone, Happy Singles Awareness Day. JK JK! Thanks for stopping by!!
