doug and i never really celebrate valentine's day, but i think it's something fun for kids, you know "the day of love" and all that. so when we had to stop by madeline's friend madison's house to collect some ballet shoes, i decided to be nice to the girls and make some cookies for them to decorate. we took over pink icing and some things to top them with and the girls got to work. they were having so much fun, all i could hear was giggling and lots of talking as i chatted to madison's mum on the other side of the bench. really the cookies were just a distraction so i could have some adult conversation...shhh. haha
i used my favourite cookie recipe from here (i love it cause it's no chill and can be used straight away) and let madeline cut them all out
baked at home...
then threw them in a box to take over.
for the icing, we just used the free icing mix that comes with store bought cupcake mix with pink food colouring added - and whatever we could find in both my cupboard and theirs.
they got pretty inventive though, i was impressed.
and little brother was even allowed to taste test!
i had the best afternoon with these little valentines. ❤
