Is everyone having a good week so far? I hope so! Are you participating in Secret Blogger Valentine? My Valentine should be receiving her goods today, so I wanted to share what I put together for the fabulous
Yasmin. I was really excited to “get” Yasmin because I had never read her blog before! She is one cool, fashionable chicky who is also a Math teacher, Masters student, and a huge UT fan!! For this lovely lady, I got a few awesome bars (some of her favorites and some of mine), an OPI nail polish, a set of heart measuring cups and a cute bowl:
I also made her up a batch of granola:
And some of my
Sweet Bread. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the cinnamon chips ANYWHERE, so I substituted in some butterscotch chips:
The result:
And my package ready to go.
I hope Yasmin enjoys it! Thank you so much
Janetha for hosting secret Valentine. And congrats to Janetha on her recent engagement!!!
And I leave you with this cute picture of my sleepy bulldog :)

ReplyDeletei need to get thinking on what to make for valentine's day! didn't realize it was that much upon us.
ReplyDeleteand while I'm here (I don't have your email--look for me on facebook), I wanted to ask you about protein powders. I hate all the jay robb ones. I need real sugar in mine. Have you tried those hemp ones? I want to stay with the ones sold at whole foods as they are ones that one would normally trust. any ideas or suggestions send them my way.

What a perfect V-Day package!! Mmmm - I love Butterscotch Chips. They rank right up there with White Chocolate, in my book!
ReplyDeleteFrank is such a sweet little guy. I'd just want to hug him and snuggle all day with him!
I have had my eye on those heart measuring cups for a year. If I had a valentine, I would make him buy them for me for sure. Forget flowers.
ReplyDeleteI know how hard the cinnamon chips are to find. My sister makes some special thing with them and she asked my mom to send a few to her in a care package to france. My mom had to call all the grocery stores to find them again!
