Loving trouser track pants right now. And with the weather, I’m loving having a shirt that can be a jacket or draped over the shoulders or tied around the waist. Was perfect for shopping with my daughter.

Seriously, sometimes you are just one red lip away from having the most amazing day. A red lip says:
💋I’m not shrinking.
💋I’m not asking twice.
💋Unavailable for maybe.
💋I choose me.

If you needed a sign, wear the red.

I’ve been starting my mornings slowly with a cup of hot water with lemon or lime. And I love how gentle and nurturing it feels. A cute mug helps.

EASY VALENTINES CAKE POPS // I love a good cake pop and since learning how to make a semi homemade version, it’s one of my favorite treats to make. These Valentine’s Day ones are super cute - and also tasty.

You’ll need
- 1 box Little Debbie Valentine Cakes
- Red candy melts
- Straws or lollipop/candy sticks
- Sprinkles
- Optional - cellophane bags & ribbon

Let’s make it
- Unwrap individual cakes and place in large bowl
- Using a mixer or spoon, break up cakes and combine
- Using a mini scoop or spoon, scoop about 1 tbsp of the cake into hand
- Roll between palms to create a round shape
- Place on wax paper lined sheet pan
- Insert straw or stick
- Pinch cake around straw or stick if there are gaps
- Place in freezer for 10 minutes
- Add meltable candy to bowl and heat until melted (according to package)
- Dip cake pops into the melted candy
- Add sprinkles immediately
- If desired, place in cellophane bags after the pops have dried and tie with ribbon

These cake pops are yummy and beautiful. Are you Team Cake Pop?

VALENTINE POP TARTS // Who doesn’t love a pop tart? I remember the first time my kiddos tried one and looked at me like I had been holding out on them. These heart shaped ones are super simple to make and taste so good!

You’ll need
- Refrigerated pie crust
- Strawberry jam or preserves
- Frosting
- Sprinkles
- Heart shaped cookie cutters
- Parchment paper
- Baking sheet

Let’s make them
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees
- Gently unfold pie crust, leaving it on the paper it comes wrapped in
- Cut out hearts using cookie cutters, making sure you have an even amount
- Top one heart with 1 tbsp of jam/preserves
- Top with plain heart
- Seal by pressing fork tubes along seams
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper
- Add each heart to baking sheet
- Bake for 10 minutes
- Microwave frosting for 30 seconds
- Stir and drizzle over hearts
- Add sprinkles if desired

These are so good! Let me know if you make them.
