Have some heart on Valentine’s Day
Challenge Yourself for: 24 Hours
How many trees are felled to make those glossy, glittery valentines every schoolkid exchanges each year? Answer: Too many. Fortunately, there are fun, from-the-heart alternatives. Today, challenge yourself to show someone you care with one of the following green “love” ideas:
• Homemade baked treats.
• Reused card stock like poker decks or magazine images modified with a message you make and print yourself.

I am baking a couple of pies for some friends.
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. :)
I made homemade candy for Valentine’s – mailed 36 and will deliver the rest tomorrow to my neighbors!
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 =)
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 am keeping it simple and baking!
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”!
