Hearts

Happy Valentine's Day! Or, as Jane probably understands it, Happy Heart Day. Between school and home celebrations, Jane has been inundated with the heart shape today. It all started with a note that her teachers sent home last week asking Jane to bring in eight Valentines for her classmates. So we got to work...

I may have helped a little

Today she wore a sweater with hearts on it, and came home with a heart sticker covered bag full of Valentines from her classmates...

and this awesome creation...

Then we ate heart shaped pancakes for dinner. Actually, Jane got the only heart shaped one because I forgot to use the mold until I was down to one scoop of batter, even though the only reason I decided to make BFD was so I could make heart shaped pancakes. The best laid plans...

And last but not least, a heart shaped cookie. This was my first attempt to make cut out sugar cookies. I highly recommend this recipe. It was easy and worked the first time I tried it, which is really good for my record in the kitchen.

On an unrelated note, I dressed Jane up as an old lady last week.

This picture cracks me up. It looks like
she is waiting for the bus or something.

In case you are wondering, this was for Golden Girl Day, which was part of a Spirit Week that one of my friends put on to help another friend get through a difficult week. Isn't she nice?!
