Our Valentine’s Day 2010

Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits

Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits

Munchkin and D had fallen asleep on Saturday night.  I slipped downstairs and starting preparing their surprise breakfast, gluten free cinnamon raisin biscuits.  I tinted the frosting pink just for fun.  (Munchkin declared the next day that they tasted like a cross between biscuits and cinnamon rolls.)

As the biscuits were baking, I began to decorate for Valentine’s Day.  Neither D nor Munchkin expected to find anything on Sunday morning, but this is what they saw…

Valentine's Table Decorations

Wanting to add a little fun to our plain light over the table, I hung balloons with pom, pom ribbon.  I always pick up decorations after the holidays, so I’m able to decorate easily on a budget.  I keep all the decorations from each holiday in their own storage bin.  I try to have them color coordinated according to the normal colors of that holiday.

Unexpected Valentine Decorations

After Christmas, I found these picks on clearance at Michael’s Crafts.  They were marked 90% off by the time I found them.  I quickly snatched up all of these picks and put them in with our Valentine’s Day decorations.  I popped them in small red glass vases from the dollar store for a cute decoration.

Valentine's Gluten Free Pasta

Every year, I make some type of pasta dish for Munchkin for Valentine’s Day.  This year, I used a large Wilton heart cookie cutter to shape the pasta.  I packed the pasta into the cookie cutter, and this was the result.  Of course, we had to add a bunch of cheese sprinkled on top.

Chocolate Covered Strawberries

We ended our day with a plate of chocolate covered strawberries that I made earlier in the day.  We all enjoyed the strawberries, and we had a wonderful Valentine’s Day together.
