DIY Friday :: Yummy Valentine
They say the way to a man’s heart is through the stomach. And boy is that true. This year I’ve made the resolution to be a domestic diva! Lol! I’m tired of making the same old ramen (although I do spice it up with my own stuff, not the packet), fried rice, polska kielbasa (the mr’s favorite!), and boring chicken. I was ready to spice things up and get my super adorable apron on (still looking for one) and get bakin’ and cookin’! My hubby knew that so he got me all kinds of baking apparatus, including a whoopie pie pan, cake decorating kit, mini donut maker (yes, one of those), and electric mixer. So since January 1, 2012, I’ve been making sweet treats almost every other day, and it’s been quite a successful month so far. And the Mr. couldn’t be happier to get his hands on those treats (and the baker, oh behave!).
For this month, I can’t wait to try one of these sweet Valentine ideas! Someone’s getting lucky tonight!
I actually made the regular shaped version of this for Chinese New Year, but I love this V’day twist!

When I saw this, I had to laugh. It’s genius! And what guy doesn’t like bacon and pancake?

Who doesn’t like getting things in the mail! Especially these adorable s’more hearts!

If you don’t want to invest in heart-shaped pans, you can always try this trick of putting a marble or 1/2 inch aluminum foil in your cupcake pan. Voila! Heart cupcakes!

So what will you be baking this Valentine’s Day?
