Happy Valentine's Day!

Valentine's Day is probably one of my favorite holidays. I like making heart shaped food and pink/red food all day. My mom would always make us pink pancakes on Valentines Day. I thought about making the famous pink heart shaped pancakes, but I opted to make pink Cream of Wheat for breakfast. I even topped it with red sprinkles. I think I went a little too far with the food coloring because it turned out DARK pink!

For lunch I made heart shaped sandwiches with sliced red apples. Caleb's sandwiches were his favorite: cheese and pickle. Leah's were pb&j.

I spend all day de-cluttering our house, so when Jon and Alex got home I wasn't in the mood to make something for dinner. I suggested to go get some pizzas, so that's what we had for dinner. Jon gets grossed out by food-colored food, so going with naturally red foods works out better for him. I lightly tinted the ranch dressing pink. It was hardly noticable, but Jon said, "this doesn't look quite right." So I told him I tried tinting it a little pink so he wouldn't be grossed out.

Now we're going to watch Cinderella and have a nice quiet evening at home in our clean and clutter-less house!
