yesterday
was not my best day
i woke up with a drippy nose
and scratchy throat
broke my glasses
and the van apparently
doesn't like going anywhere
when it's zero degrees out
so Chad filled up his car
with as many kids as possible
and i stayed home with the younger two
and even though
i wasn't feeling so hot
i needed to make something for lunch
plus
colds make me hungry
so whilst spaghetti sauce bubbled away
in my crock pot
i decided to use some ready made pie crusts
and a can of cherry pie filling
to make an easy sweet treat for the family
using two refrigerated rounds of pie dough
i cut 16 circles
then made cut-outs in half of the rounds
with my small heart shaped cutter
after adding a dollop of canned cherry pie filling on the uncut rounds
i topped with the cutout rounds
pressed the edges together with a fork
brushed the crusts with egg white
sprinkled with sugar
and baked in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes
yum
when my family
trooped home from church
cold and snow-dusted
these little love-filled guys
brought smiles all around
what sweet treats
are you making for Valentine's Day this year?
