    Well I did my cooking yesterday, Fish Tacos for me and my hubbie had pizza! went running with the dog for my work out and me and hubbie had date night last night and every Friday night at home. He also bought me a dozen beautiful red roses and I bought him a soft stuffed doggie that is holding a heart that says “sweetie pie”!

    I made cheesecake stuffed fresh strawberries dipped in chocolate for valentines this year. I passed them out at work and as Valentines for family.

    I made sugar cookies and decorated them with icing, also made some “Boston Cream Pie” cupcakes. Sent them to work with the hubby, the airmen like little treats now and then =)

    We’re having dinner at home and then I’m making my hubby some homemade sweets and a coupon book for fun things he can redeem. :)
