Janelle - as always, you’re inspiring. I love the idea of a food calendar, and it gives me an excuse to go out and buy a cool (half-price!) new one for my kitchen.
Also the heart cookies are lovely. I’m greatly inspired to try these too, although I’d be shocked if they turned out, because you know…
You should write about this recipe for Kids’ Cuisine, no?
LOVE your blog, btw. I wish we were neighbors. Our kids could play and I could watch you cook…

I’m totally in ice cream mode so the concept of ORANGE ice cream with brownies is outrageous. I love it. recipe?? ^_-

This is such a great post and so true in every way. Our lives really do revolve around food… from the time we are born to the time we die, it is what is essential.

I keep my menu plan calendars. It’s interesting to look back on them and remember a meal, or what may have happened over that meal as we all sat down as a family.

Jennifer: I didn’t bother with cutters:). I just made a heart-shaped log and sliced away. The cookies are imperfect hearts, but I sorta like ‘em that way.

Sher: thanks! I was having a little bit too much fun.

Aria: thanks! Yes, I need to dig a little deep for Valentine inspiration. I am usually still recovering from other holidays!

Jeff: she would feel loved:).

Kate: sorry you don’t feel well, I hope you feel better SOON. The food will wait:).

I like the food calendar idea. It sounds like something that would be very interesting to read, say like a year after the fact to see what you had been up to.

Blogging is sort of like that, I like to think about what inspires me to make what I did and how I felt about it, what it made me feel like to eat it….etc etc. I have been sick for several days now with no appetite, although I am really wanting to cook stuff, or bake. I think I just want to comfort myself.

Beautiful cookies. If I had some cookie cutters and a rolling pin I MIGHT have broken my cookie sabbatical for this one! But nooo I gotta be good (especially trying to really watch what I eat here!).
