Getting ready for Valentine's Day

I decided to make a few boxes for familly and friends for Valentine's Day.
I truly enjoy baking : )

I think I went a little overboard...


...but it was worth it!

 Step 1- Bake the cookies

 Step 2- Outline the cookies

 Step 3- Flood the Cookies

Step 4- Decorate

 Step 5- Package the cookies

 Package all the other treats.

 Pick through my handmade cards

Put the contents in the boxes and prepare for pick-up and/or delivery : )

I hope the recipients of my valentine's day boxes truly enjoy them as much as I enjoyed putting them together.

A little glimpse of my life

I went to see the Jean Paul Gaultier exhibit at the Museum, it was an excellent exhibit! It was something unlike anything I've ever seen,

 The mannequins talked. It was a very interesting exhibit.

 I finally tried the restaurant RISE. The atmosphere is cute and quaint. The souffles are delicious! It's very Parisian!

 While in New York I went to a taping of the Martha Stewart Show. Here is a pic of Ava and me in line outside the studio.

 Here are a few pics of the set- It's a very well organized show.  I truly enjoyed this experience!

 Martha demonstrating for Ava(who asked her about her stamps) how to use her heart stamp.

I haven't been on my blog like I should, Lord knows it's theraputic!

My goal is to get back to the business of blogging!

I hope you have a great week!!!!
