Valentines of All Sorts

I hope you're having a happy Valentine's Day! For me, the day doesn't mean roses (overpriced and unoriginal) or staring into each other's eyes over a candlelit dinner (ugh! the pressure!). Valentine's Day means baking up some yummy things, like my Classic Sugar Cookies and Cherry/White Chocolate/Macadamia Nut Scones (I used my Drop Scones recipe and added white chocolate chips and chopped-up macadamias to the mix):


I made little bundles for a few of my neighbors, for a friend who was in town visiting UCLA and USC with her high-school-age son, and even for my grumpy U.S. Postal Service carrier. (I'm on a campaign to soften him up with kindness and cookies.)



Valentine's Day also means being grateful for all the love in my life: The Hubby, my kids, my family, my girlfriends, and my three silly dogs:




Pugs and kisses to ya!
