I gave Scott the card I got for him. As I mentioned, we decided not to exchange gifts for Valentine’s Day. Or any holiday. Skylar scored though!
A cute new outfit from Grandma
She loves getting cards. More so than the actual gift, I think.
I was happy that she enjoyed a few little surprises. She’s clutching the card I gave her with chocolate in it. She is more into the card than the chocolate.
The Date Surprise that I am referring to in the post title would be a few of these…
….Medjool Dates with Surprises in the middle: Peanut Butter + Chocolate Chips
And you thought I actually had a hot date. That would be Madeline. In my Being Thankful for & Grateful post, both Chocolate and Peanut Butter made the cut of 7 items. So you’d better believe these are right up my alley. And you thought I had a hot date surprise. Wrong. From my last post and recipe for Microwave Blueberry Banana Oat Cakes, I am glad those looked good to you! Anything that takes less than 5 minutes to make is my kinda recipe. I hope it’s yours, too.
And it sounds like there are some major blueberry fans reading. Me too! Questions:
- Did anyone surprise you with anything for Valentine’s Day weekend so far? I realize Valentine’s Day isn’t technically until tomorrow so maybe there’s hope if you haven’t been swept off your feet, yet. For me, no surprises. And I’m not holding my breath for any. I told Scott until Item #1 is handled, no spending money. And I am so close to having it handled!
- Do you like dates? The fruit or the event, take your pick. I love medjool dates so much. They are like nature’s candy and it wasn’t until a few years ago that I really got into them. They are the foundation for all my dessert balls. I have an entire post dedicated to all my dessert ball recipes. Like… Raw Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls
