I'm also having fun experimenting with my camera! Happy Valentine's Day!
One travelling husband, two active boys, a house built in 1969 in need of major updating....I am loving every minute of it! (well most of it...)

Valentine's Day Cookies
After being inspired by her and this article in Southern Living, I decided to try to make some Valentine's cookies of my own. I usually do make heart cookies, but have been wanting a more "finished" look for them. I have never used Royal Icing before, but recently read about how versatile it is, so I thought I would give it a try. How fun! Here are some pictures of my results. I am pretty pleased with how they turned out, although I haven't actually tasted them yet.
